Nothing Poem

Life moves so darn fast
I feel I am being left behind
Once again, yesterday is a dying haven
and I have nothing I can depend on
If I can be sure I have a shining future
I won't be so dependent on what passes me by

Life seems to be simple for so many
and yet, I fear I have not found my place
Once again, tomorrow scares me more
than anything else on this earth
If I can be sure I can spread my wings
I won't fly too close to the sun

On the day of my death
I'm sure I'll look back and wonder
why I had so much regret
Because right now
this long, twisted road leads to nowhere
and that, is what I worry of each and every night

There are an infinite amount of possibilities that stretch out before you... you may only see fear right now... but there is so much more beyond that. Stepping out and taking control of your life and thoughts is what will make the difference. We all fall victim to this though, letting out thoughts hold us captive, perspective is what will give you wings. You have a wonderful way of expressing your feelings... wonderful work, Elliot.

"Once again, tomorrow scares me more
than anything else on this earth"

Sounds familiar. Have felt the same fear too couldn't remember how I dealt with it I just got threw with it after a few days. I like the subject. Nice poem!

Why worry? It doesn't change a thing. A while back, I had something happen that changed my life. Now I just go for it and try never to have regrets and never be a "what if". You will find your place. Nice writing. Penny

I like how you started of with 'Life moves so darn fast' it just made me understand what the poem may be about!

Brother, take a deep breath, and stride out that door tomorrow morning. Your writing alone should allow you to walk with a straight back.

Your not alone in this fear...
People seem to have it easy and simplistic. No one has it that way unless they arent looking deep enough.
Your not alone

It's as if you entered my mind. Wow. I'm with you 100% on that fear.
