I don't want the pressure of meeting your expectations.
My travels taught me to look forward to nothing
And then you will never be let down.
I lock myself up
in my mind.
Second guess my next move
on what I should do.
Years of misinterpretation
allowed the growth of wants,
Wanting for something to believe in.
It became my logic for wastefulness
and my disease for mistrust.
I try to paint a pretty picture in my head
and challenge the person that question's.
Leaving myself to ask, "Why?"
There must be reasons for reasoning.
A blanket of hopelessness
Shadows my life like a dark cloud.
Smothering my faith.
I guess we all are walking a path of uncertainties.
A fine line of who we are and our own being.
Molecules of life.
My obsession lies in the struggle to believe
and to want a reason for living in this dying world.

Hindsight isn't really 20/20, its a bit schewed with the experience of yesterday and the wanting of it to be right today. Throw in the ups and downs, a blindsided pot luck day every other day ... its no wonder we have unanswered questions. An interesting write indeed, I liked it, be well k

Thank You!

A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
