LIFE-QUAKES


 

It looks like any other day

Trash is blowing in the street,

Graffiti states everyone’s view,

As grass pushes up the concrete!

In fact, there is nowhere to hide

As I hear the whistle of a train,

And the sounds of its sadness

Not understanding life’s pain –

The dark clouds start to roll in,

Like painted messages in the sky

The wind is so still, O so still,

As time slowly passes by . . .

No point to think about yesterday –

All the excuses I’m sure you’d like,

And I’m sure I would lie anyway!

So, go ahead and take a hike –

Like all, I have had my problems,

And around me I have built walls!

In truth, no one wants to hear me,

And the heartaches a mind recalls!

 

I wish I could tell a better story,

And I know how this must look,

But it’s about Life-Quakes, and

No, I’m not trying to write a book!
