Me and everybody

Me and everybody

A Poem by Mauricio Montoya

Wow
My dear friends
You've kept me
From harms way
But its not fear
That bothers me
Nor being alone
That mother's me
It's laying here and doing nothing
that troubles me
You wonder if I will
Come out and play
But I can not stand
Because under the weather
Has brought me to my knees
Which has broken the spirit
where I can't afford to pay
Attention for another day.

Doing nothing is perhaps the most dangerous thing we can do. The weather has us down, staying inside cooped up all day. Doing nothing leads us down a slippery slope of boredom, sadness, laziness etc. The best thing we can do is something small, larrge or medium!

Even in our darkest moments we can still find strength, and we can still write! I believe that writing helps us. Keep on writing, and I wish you well!

Thank you for reading and sharing your thoughts.
When a child can't afford to play because he/she is in pain, it is a sorrowful situation. Is it your mother who is causing you this pain? Is she dragging you down in some way.? Seems like you are in a hopeless situation and for some reason you cannot get out of this web of suffering. Heartfelt and well written.
Best, Betty

The harsh realities of life
hit us and seems we are hopeless
and helpless to get our spirits up.
and do something to ease the
sufferings ..deeply expressed
and well penned

Mauricio, I am so sorry to hear how you are currently feeling. In the circumstances, it must have taken a huge effort for you to pen this poem. That needs to be recognised. Well done you. I sincerely hope that you get some healing soon and your spirit starts to lift. Take care my friend. I have you in my thoughts.
