Steer

[Deleted member 14177]

Take away my voice;
For I can't recognize it.
Take away my name;
As I won't respond to it.
Who is she anyway,
or who was she yesterday?
Unrecognizable.
Undeniable.
Screaming for change
until she's blue in the face.
"Stay", they say;
Who are they talking to anyway?
Manning this body of mine,
I'm asking for her advice.
She leads me to the helm,
foreign and unwell.
And she just keeps steering,
steering for me.
As a passenger in this body,
I'm desperate to
jump ship.

Thank you. This means so much to me

You are welcome. I am a poet and prose writer myself, although due to my health as it is dont write much these days. I know when I read something special and from what have seen of your poems on here, they are just that. Hope to see more as and when. xx

Lovely and powerful imagery!

I also feel like a ship with a stranger at the helm. Thank you for sharing.
