You say
Food will be on the table
And birds will fly in the sky
But why am I hungry
And why's it cloudy outside?
You say
I'll have a bed to sleep in
And a pillow for my head
But why am I so tired
And why's the floor a bed?
You say
I'll have a pen and paper
To write down every thought
But every thought that comes to me
You tell me it is not.
You say
Life is like an easy path
And the difficult path is death
But why have I come to a fork in the road
And why am I lacking in breath?
I die with every thought I've had
And every lie you've told me
So why am I the one lying here
When it's you who really should be.

Chasing Rain,

This poem is very heart felt.  Your talent in painting pictures with words, is to be commended.  I look forward to reading more from you.

O Morning...wrap yourself around me today. Let me experience the peace I see in you.

Very well done here. The meaning behind this was great.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily
