Things don't seem very hopeful and worth anything these days. This is just a reflection of how things affect me...


Helpless

Today, I was faced between
A choice - my want or responsibility
And I choice the one I hated most
And left behind my want, at an obscene cost

And every day I wake up thinking
Why and what have I been doing
See a madness rising in the world
To be a part of which I have my mind furled

And tweaks of my days have become my routine
And my responsibilities have hurt my queen
The only time my face moves is when I am wailing
The only time I feel something is when I am failing

Determination lacking and my body failing me
Condemned by my own brain I have, forgotten what means glee
Defeated by subtlety, my greatest evil, being artless
Torn between two choices, broken and helpless

We are faced with difficult choices, but thinking, and making the right one could free our soul. Best wishes.

ken d williams The PoetBay support member heart!
When we were born
Maybe even before
Even then at the second
We were conceived
Hope was conceived
When all seems lost
Hope remains silent
It's hart beating
Writing out and sharing
Sustains us , keeps hopes alive
