PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Hope for me i will be okay

From the start of each new day

Hold my hand so i won't falter

In the quest that i cant alter

See inside is only fright

not the urge to have a fight.

I need to learn not to worry

About all those folks in a hurry

Life has it's own ups and downs

that cause us all to wear a frown

But it will never be as bad 

as when i was so young and sad

I need to remember things have changed

That i have grown and yet remained

Here in life i wont give up

At the feast i'll get to sup

It's taken time to get this far 

But now it's time to raise the bar

hold on to your guts you'll be fine

telling folks so that they know to define

As i'm not of the ordinary sort

For me everything is so fraught

Because of a broken switch inside

that makes me want to run and hide

So i will not allow myself to overthink it

Whats inside is a broken instinct

Instead i will just take a breath

Think it through in shallow depth

Did they really want to hurt you?

The people folks all around you

I don't think they even care

even if they do stare

So bear with me it may take a while

for me to just bear a smile

I've done very well to even be here

To be so social is very rare

Everyone around you is kind

stop searching you'll never find

What it is causing this dread

That starts as i get out of bed

I feel powerless when it grips me

A pawn in mine owned lifetimes journey

To FIGHT? or FLEE? that is the question

Constantly asked to my distraction
