Away From You Poem, by Tristan Robert Lange, at My poetic side

Hello.

Nice to come across you.

It’s so great to be afforded

The chance to read you,

To get an inner sense

Of who you might be.

Wisdom is the thread

Through your words

And logic: your frame.

A structure built upon

Timeless truths

And the ideas of

Those who came before.

But wait!

I must read that again.

You say that must be?

I disagree.

Yes! I know who you were

Way back when:

A great thinker,

A philosopher,

A theologian,

A great teacher.

All of those things, true!

But here’s the catch,

I am too.

And, knowing what I know,

As truth sits today,

I still disagree

with You.

And I can disagree,

And faithfully move

Away from where

I disapprove.

And now I move

Away from you,

Though not away

From what’s true,

But from you.

Away

From

You.
