I Think About LIFE

I think About LIFE

 

I think about life

And how much

It changes so fast

 

Everything falls apart

But comes together in the end

We struggle with all we have

 

Making it day by day

I’ve broken down

But been lifted up

 

I think about you

And how much

We’ve come together

 

We went to being so

Alone and hurt

To so happy and loved

 

I’m glad we are making it work

Because without you

I couldn’t do it

 

I think about leaving

But you can’t let me go

I can’t stay here forever

 

I’m the first to move out

I’m the youngest

And I’m still your little girl

 

I understand all that

But you did it, now its my turn

Its my time to figure it out

 

I think about life

And how much

It changes so fast..

You flow from your deepest soul......sincere and emphatic......a stance of artistic arrival....beautiful work my friend.

Yes, every nest is vacated by the young, once they grow feathers and their wings develop. Of course, it may take a few tries to get it right. But once they discover the air under their wings, there's no turning back. Outstanding piece.

I love this! I thought it was turning into a love poem but then you say, "I’m the first to move out/I’m the youngest/And I’m still your little girl." This stanza brought a smile to my face because I'm the youngest in my family and I'm moving out this Saturday. I can relate to this poem so much! I also love the emotion you put into this piece. Great poem! :)
