Trapped

I can’t move,

Stuck in the past,

The, light, it shines,

I reach for it,

But it’s right outside of my grasps,

I began to fall,

I began to gasp,

The light at the end of the tunnel seems to pass,

My life begins to move way to fast

 A downwards spiral is what I see

The life that’s left begins to leave

I’m left there alone

I began to bleed

All I’m left with is

Wondering who I am

 

 

Looking in the mirror of my life

Not seeing what I’m like

Not seeing the good

When people say I should

Trying to fight

Fight for just one sight

In to the life that I left,

I left because it was just, to right

But now it’s all out of sight

Left or right

I see no trail

Back in sight

Alone

Cold

Feeling like a helpless little girl

In this cold unforgiving world

Seeing there should be something more

My hart and mind begins to sore

Then I can see

The light has returned

Because see what I’ve learned

Is you have to be burned before you can earn the keep in this world

You have to give everything to the one who has held you up enough to fight for the right to stay in this unending journey   

 

 

The king of kings came and visited me that day

That’s the light that seemed so far away

I lost sight of it not because he left, but because I turn away

Now life is moving right

And the light is always left in my sight

When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
