All is over between the giant and me <br />His brilliance is not as bright as it seemed <br />I recognized manhood is a matter of choice <br />Since he is too afraid even if he is already old <br /> <br />I remember the story about the elephant <br />When it was young and tied on a string <br />It was too afraid to run and set itself free <br />So after many years he still thinks the same <br />Even if he is strong his mind thinks he can’t <br />When all it has to do is walk to be set free <br />His large frame was not enough because <br />His mind is bound and a slave to his gone past <br /> <br />No more need for words to be exchanged <br />Since you will head off to your place <br />If you were wise your wisdom should have rewarded you <br />If you are a fool you alone will suffer <br /> <br />So your inhibitions and immaturity is keeping you <br />No ounce of inspiration can ever release you <br />Since you embraced the old baggage with passion <br />I have done my part and will continue to move on<br /><br />Claire Ann Pajo Sansolis<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/it-s-over-between-the-giant-and-me/
