LIFE, LOVE, PAIN AND SORROW

How can I write about
Things that I don't know
About things I think I feel
When, not all real feelings show.

Sometimes we think we must
Have something or someone
But by ourselves, when we
Only think we're done.

Can I really compromise
(but, what does that mean?)
I've seen people change their minds
From here in between.

I guess I couldn't write it
If it wasn't here inside
Coming from a place in me
Maybe, I've tried to hide.

But how will I know
When I already see
What lays there behind
And what things might be.

I know there's more to life
And maybe sometimes less
But hard as I figure it
I can't seem to even guess.

Where do I go from here
Where will I be tomorrow
Somewhere between this and that
Life, love, pain and sorrow.

I guess I still am here
But what about tomorrow
I hope I can say I did something
About life, love, pain and sorrow.

This has a good steady buildup, and wonderful last two stanzas. I like it.
