Willing to leave, too scared to stay;
Until the light, is shined once more
To cleanse the spirit, from their floor.
When Darkness falls, most run and hide
Afraid of black, they run inside;
Until the light, decides to rise
And puts that sparkle, in their eyes.
When Darkness falls, most give it up
Too Terrified, to live it up;
Until the light, beams from the sky
And wipes the tears, from their cry.
When Darkness falls, most tend to quit
Thus leading too, their skin cells slit;
Until the light, shines off the moon
And heals their scares, heals their wounds.
When Darkness falls, I find a way
To see color, ignore the gray;
And when the light, shines through to me
I'll be waiting, to shine indeed.
I have been working on this poem, actually trying to focus on structure and rhythm and all that shakespearean trash.
It is about my aspect toward the things i am doing right now, compared to how it seems like everyone else looks at their situation.
It has a bunch of meanings.
Interpret How You Want.
Feedback would be great!

WOW.
I did see different interpetations in this, however what sticks out most is how you see things, and how you choose to look at them. I loved it!!
You continue to impress me with your viewpoints. I enjoyed reading all of your entries, especially the driving situation and the hockey perspectives. The really cool thing about being a parent is watching not only your own kids mature, but also their friends. It's been said that you can't choose your family, but who your friends are say a lot about who you are. Obviously there are great things ahead of you in the near future. People like to hear what you have to say and know that you're alright. Reading your blogs steels that for me. It was great to see you earlier this month. Be sure to stop in over the holidays to get some home cookin'
I am truly impressed. I can think of several people who could benefit from your positive outlook. I just may pass a link to your blog along to them! :-)
