Sometimes I feel like I cannot smile Things close in on me if only for a while Other times I feel like I can only cry When I think of my mom in the great by and by Sometimes I feel like I am a child Running around the house and being wild Other times I feel like I am very old On those long winter nights when I get so cold Sometimes I feel like nothing can stand in my way I wake up ready go to out and conquer each day Other times I feel like I can barely get out of bed So many visions and voices filling my head Sometimes I feel like I am happy here When I sit back and think about all those years Other times I feel like I should be home It always hits me wherever I happen to roam Sometimes I feel like I can do no wrong Whistling and singing life’s sweet serene song Other times I feel like nothing is right When I weep and wail in sheer fright Sometimes I feel like I gave my best Somehow managing to pass life’s little test Other times I feel like I have truly failed Like Jesus to the cross I have been nailed Sometimes I feel like the world is mine In the things I do my true self shines Other times I feel like I am not me Struggling, hoping to someday be free Sometimes I feel like I am a good friend Encouraging and supportive my love knows no end Other times I feel like I cannot help Like a wounded puppy I silently yelp Sometimes I feel like I am real I often think and compassionately feel Other times I feel like I am fake I curl up crying as I violently shake Sometimes I feel like no one sees The woman who’s really inside of me Other times I feel like they surely know My heart on my sleeve constantly shows Sometimes I feel like I need strength To find it I’d go to any length Other times I feel like I am powerful My grasp of the game can be masterful Sometimes I feel like the meek Praying for the forgiveness that I seek Other times I feel like I am in control It’s my hand that writes the future scroll Sometimes I feel like I want to leave There’s no way any could ever believe Other times I feel like they already sense The circumstances behind certain events Sometimes I feel like this is the end No more poetry shall I send Other times I feel like I will write on Until the words inside are all gone Sometimes I feel like I should kneel In order for Him to finally heal Other times I feel He is done Like when I see the rising of the sun Sometimes . . . All writing comes |

sometimes you can. . . and sometimes. . . you can't. . .that all that there is. . . it's not right, I know. . . but. . . that is the lesson. . . well done. . . well chosen words, and a good flow. . . ----------------------------------------------------- To the world, you may only be one person. But to one person, you may be the world. |
