This Is Me

Here I am
a thousand miles from my past
I reach out to you
and always fall short of your grasp

My steps are measured
My voice offers no release
Everything in me
is bursting at the seams

If I were to whisper
Would you be able to hear
I’m being held hostage
by dreams that I fear

My confines are crumbling
All my thoughts are tumbling
They mingle with a future
that the present can not see

What can I do
Accept the reality
that this is me

You need to compile your poetry and submit it to a publisher...please! I agree with the always lovely Matt. It's brilliant.

Matt: Yes I did, that morning in fact. Thank you :-)

Angela: Thank you, maybe one day I'll be brave enough to submit and expect all the criticism. You and Matt are too nice, thanks for the confidence boost.

I'm just glad that you guys get and appreciate my words.

Have a great weekend!
