A World, A Life
September 4, 2011
I eat to sleep
And sleep to eat
Days will come
Without a peep
Though as glorious
As life may seem
There are many days
Where I want to scream
Though I look around
And there I see
A world, A life
Much worse for me
I live in blessings
But I always forget
With all of the obstacles
God had set
I trip and I fall
While I’m standing up tall
I continue to crawl
I’m not happy at all
But no matter how sad
Or hurt I can be
There’s A world, A life
Much worse for me

A poet's work is to name the unnameable, to point at frauds, to take sides, start arguments, shape the world, and stop it going to sleep.
