Uneasy - A Poem by Moe

when what is steady breeds the same
all ebbs and flow go light
and all that's comfort has me tame
does cause me sleepless night

for not long can such ease and bliss
exist to just exist
as man needs more than noiseless hiss 
for life yet to persist  

now goes increased my weight and pain
that pressure be my friend
for life is death without the gain
from what was meant to end

for as I feel my time is past
all shutters close on me
the one by one, from first to last
in secret all agree

that I am one that stays the same
my growth is mine alone
while all the rest will heed the frame
this age has darkly grown

and subtle are the whispered flairs
that draw them far from me
as truth has been replaced by shares
of feelings blight decree

~Moses Apollo Apolinaris
