Where Is My Success? By Eva Tortora Poem by Eva Tortora

where is my success?
in the palm of my hand
I hold it with the tip of my tongue
I attract colors, and moons and suns
weather of all patterns
but I steadily climb
towards a beautiful skyline
there to catch me
in words and wisdom
where is my success?
its within my soul, I answer
I have attracted people, places and things
and its all inside my heart
where Is my success?
I hold it within me, palm to palm
and it climbs out like a rainbow
under many listless skies
my success is before, present and after
my success is my wounds
my success is my worlds
my success is my kingdom
waiting for me to enter
when you say 'go'
I shall open the gates
but when I say go
I shall shatter like starlight
in and out of all the rooms
of my kingdom
singing to everyone
'watch me glow'
