Poem : A letter to myself.

Dear Me, 

For so long now you have struggled

To keep one step ahead

Days are going by faster now

You are getting more grey on your head

Stop and think about it all

Stand still and take a break 

Take a peek through all life's doors

Hurry don't hesitate

Things get lonely sometimes

And you want to reach out for companionship but crossing that threshold doesn't always bode well

It's like there is an in between place you reside where you want to leave but you want to stay at the same time

The world is crumbling around you 

One building at a time

The sky is falling in your path

The church bells no longer chime

A plague is in the air tonight

Guns ring in a distant land 

The greedy could care less about you

And the sea is washing away the sand

The poor are dieing in the streets everyday from no food, no help and no hope

Get at peace with yourself before it's too late

And God will help you cope
