"You’re not paying attention!" they say.
"You act as though you have no care in the world."
I keep walking towards my indecisions anyway.
I walk ahead with my head up high,
my naivety gets the better of me.
I needed a new beginning and thought it was worth the risk
To walk blindly into the abyss
No future plans just living in the now.
I want something new
And to reach it, I don’t care how.
I walk to the beat of my own drum as the ground crumbles behind me.
There’s no going back
At least not the same way I came.
Like Alice in her wonderland
Who lost her way
curiosity killed the cat.
"I’m still standing!" I yell
Untouchable to say the least.
I pride myself on risky business
and bad decisions
Inhibitions non-existent.
I am the fool in reverse.
Careless and free-willed.
I fear nothing.
This ignorance is bliss.
Background to this piece... I've been on a roller coaster of a spiritual journey for a long time now and for a while I've been turning to Tarot to guide me. I'm no pro at interpreting the cards but I like to think that when I do read cards my intuition takes control. This poem sprang from being called back to shuffling and interpreting cards, as I have not done so in a while. This is just a quick piece I whipped up while trying to remember what each card signified. I hope you enjoyed it!
