I ponder if I'm fonder
Of this life
Or should I wander
To stray maybe stay
Or just to
Go straight away
Take flight through the night
On my dreams
And my delight
I'll deal with what I feel
Hope and pray
That its not real
I planned for a stand
All I got
Was boring and bland
This fist on my wrist
Took a swing
But then I missed
Now lost in the frost
Of my heart
What a cost
The grind not so kind
I wasn't slow
But left behind
Fires nine deaf the sine
The fires breath
Upon my spine
Took my sorrow to the morrow
I'm just looking
For another life to borrow

Go back to sleep, you got the wrong
dream. You don't need to borrow any
body elses life. They may not be able
to write as well as you do. I do so
enjoy your different types of poetry.
You make me laugh and sometimes even
shed a tear. Not everyone can do that.

~Hey there,...enjoyed the twisty wording in this. It read well. Your expression here is heard and admired for it's real...for it's style,...know that life is what you make it and it seems you've got lots to offer. Take care of yourself now. *Peace.

Oh wow.     

"Took my sorrow to the morrow
I'm just looking
For another life to borrow"

Those three lines really hit me...I like this a lot..    

With a little piece of tomorrow,
You'll have to kiss yesterday goodbye.
Because today won't last forever,
And the past will only make you cry.
