I'ts not right !!

It's not right !
  I'ts not fair.
That I have to fight.
  to breath for air...
Why is it light,
  When you are there?
Then it turns dark as night.
  to dark to bear.

How can you say goodnight,
  without a trace of care?
Leaving me alone in fright..
  That your dreams I'll never share.
Why do you get a green light.
  And get to go everywhere?
When I get a red light,
  And can't go anywhere?
You get to go left and right,
  Or anywhere you dare...
But I have to follow my headlight.
  And stay on the throughfare.

I'ts just not right.
  I want to Tell you I care.
But I'm afraid I might.
  Just get a glare...
So I'll just stay out of sight,
  and sit here and stare.
Hoping some day god might.
  Answer my prayer...

Chico, you have a nice way with words, you tell of sadness however, could it be that you need to forge ahead, not wait, then this may not be about you?????Very interesting words, keep it up...bill

No, it's not right. You shouldn't sit around and wait on anybody. Forge ahead on your own path. Well expressed thoughts and feelings in this!

Chico

This was an excellent read! I really like the way you express yourself here. This poem had a hint of fustration, and quite a bit of sadness. Great poem!

Take care,

Well written.  We cannot rely on others for our happiness.  Look inside, find all the green lights you will need to persevere.

I do like it. And as the others said, there is sadness and frustrations in it. You put it across well.
