‘At Bay’

Start looking outside your frame of reference,

  for that which will stand you alone

 

Stop longing for praise or high endorsement,

  things only borrowed or loaned

 

Start feeling those words you preach unto others,

   no longer hiding yourself away

 

Stop blaming the time and the message it brings

  —for those excuses that keep you ‘at bay’

 

(Villanova Pennsylvania: June, 2016)
