Packing My Soul

Life is like a mileage of rummage,
Preparing for a trip to be started,
Feeling being raw within own heart,
Yet phone bills keep me from being free.

When I can’t see the whole picture,
My wrinkles appear on my forehead,
Feeling the earth is quaking before me,
Yet a table is what I have with me.

Life is like a mileage of rummage,
Preparing for jammed traffics,
Feeling all things under my fingertips,
Yet really have no idea of depth of unseen.

When I can view the entire picture,
My mind hesitates, jammed with red light,
Feeling the world’s garbage are within my room,
Yet two hands are all I have with me.

Life is like a mileage of rummage,
Preparing for the peak and pit…
Feeling drown when I am among the “sea”,
Yet triumph shows through as beach become sand.

Juju,

Your poem reminds me of the kinds of days I am experiencing at the moment. Great poem!
