but never to grow

It is a shame. A shame that I cannot yell and shout and lament a person, place or thing.

It is a shame to be sad and angry with nothing to blame, forced to seek a lonely peace.

The kind where a deep sigh replaces rage as I step down and away and then stifle a roar as I turn a new page.

A younger me might’ve played this game. 

There is no fault, nor hatred upon myself or a once loved face. 

Grace giving muscles will soon be sore.

It is a shame.

And not one thing more.
