A Poem by Leandro Mendez

As my awakening live
has just given permission
to start,
nothing seems to be
entwined
when I overheard
an elder share wisdom
and laugh.

A couple of blinks
of my eyes,
and years have passed,
and my peace
has been drained
by worries of a
modern life.

My heart has been
broken many times,
and I was blind
to see the people that
wanted to give me
a chance.

Life is a trip,
no just a game
to mess around with.

Sadly, some of us
see this too late.

I forgot what my mission
was in the first place,
but even though
I'm not done yet,
I hope, when
I use the stars
as steps of a
heavenly stair
to reach God's gaze,
my mission is accomplished
and my flaws vanished.

Yes I know but I forgot to ask! xD Whoops, sorry!
Leandro fabulous final stanza. For I too.....

This journey is an interesting one. In the first stanza did you mean to say "As my awakening life
has just given permission"? Life not Live.
