One life we do lead One heart does bleed Everyday slips by so fast Another pinnacle moment has passed I remember tomorrow like yesterday Just another a moment with an emotion I forgot to convey Today I did borrow Yet I am not promised tomorrow Like Atlas I carry the world on my shoulders While my heart quietly smolders Why do I let these shackles be When I know my own words can set me free My concrete shoes are of my own design And for that lost love I still do pine Claiming that I am not strong However my heart does beat on These thoughts awaken me I am only in this place because I chose to be I feel the weight being lifted And of a new life I am gifted For this is my life No one will pull me from this strife I must rise up from my knees I see what the blind man sees A world full of a possibilities Tomorrow comes for those who fear it. Today never ends for those who live it. |

However my heart does beat on These thoughts awaken me I am only in this place because I chose to be I feel the weight being lifted And of a new life I am gifted For this is my life No one will pull me from this strife I must rise up from my knees I see what the blind man sees A world full of a possibilities FANTASTIC lines, dear poe! Goes into my library. Wonderful awareness! Love, Margherita |

Thank You, passing shadows Thank You, Margherita I am glad that you enjoyed my poem enough to set it a side in your library. Thank You Alli Yes LeeJ it is true because everything you do is no longer hindered on looks, so you may find love in the strangest of places. Tomorrow comes for those who fear it. |
