A poem to all of you
I'm not really big on poetry with certain exceptions and other than primary school haiku, I don't think I've written anything close to poetry before. Short stories I can handle but poetry? I may have the soul of one but I lack their grace.
Nevertheless, I came up with this one while I was trying to study for my test this wednesday. It expresses how I truly feel. In fact, one day I hope to write and publish a book 'The psychobabble of a 5 year old'. =) If I do succeed, then this is where you heard it from first.
Enjoy.
In all of usIn all of us, there is a tiny corner in our minds,
when life was easy and everything was fine.
where the sun shines and laughter surrounds,
We just couldn’t get enough of the love around.
Skies were bluer with strawberry clouds
while we filled the air with screams and shouts
Creating such a raucous din,
Unlike any that you have ever seen.
Oh, you might even think us mad
But what a lovely time we had.
Dreaming ourselves as futures aces
Too bad it was just a passing phase.
Now, I feel the walls closing in.
And things are not all they seem.
Tell me why the sky looks grey
In each and every single way.
How I yearn for those simple days
when all I cared for were golden rays.
Remember though when times aren't right.
look inside for that little corner of delight
