Introverted Sage

Take away this static.
Wash away these bite size hangnails clawing at my skin. 
Scratch and plead but this pull comes from within. 
Tense, locked, sensations sending shocks
Up and down my spine. Bolts of electricity
Sparking off my mind
In no time.
Blades and waves, not much makes it behave
Squeeze and fight
All we know to make it right. 
Boiling hot to cold as ice
Came at a price. 

Erase the feeling so naturally
So much that when it all came flooding back to me
Being attacked
And forgetting to breathe. 
Forgot I could see. 

Moving into my life
Become what you once were 
Time's not waiting
But don't rush her.
Pull out the rug, made to feel a mug
All because
Of this reactionary plug. 

Wasted away 
Electricity at play
Sparks in my hand
Go to my heart. 
Wondering where to start 
Left then write
Or use your art. 
But when all outlooks are grim at dark.
Pardoned peaceful moments at the park.
When will the time come 
To be me. 

Stakes and Lore
Imagination for what's in store
Creation for all I can become.
From under the thumb
Having a bit of fun.
Release at the rhythm hits the sheet.
