Should IA Poem by Arly ParentI was reading a friend's blog and...this is my response.
Should I Should I even be alive
becomes should I even care
becomes should I go on
just becomes
so should I?
should I grow?
should I push?
should I struggle and persevere, cry out and shed my tears, meet the pain, mete the pain?
is it worth it? is it worth it?
worth the waiting
worth the wondering, the insecurity and the hoping
the remorse
worth the crying, the cold, the darkness, this unforgiving course
worth the talking and the glares, the fingers and the stares
is it worth it?
is it worth it for that feeling
the butterflies
the flutter
is it worth it for the calm, the peace, the freedom from the clutter
of the heart
and of the mind
and of the past far far behind
is it worth it?
is it?
so should I?
will I?
