LIFE AND DEATH
Where will my life take me
if I stay on this track
Direction in my life I really do lack.
Two kids, a husband two cats and me
A house, two cars and a shady tree.
Is there really any meaning in this life of ours
Or are we just here, then we’re gone with no powers.
Where do we all go when we die after all
We’ll just never know til we happen to fall.
So does our life matter, I mean what’s the point?
We’re here then we’re gone, it’s all a moot point.
Death just causes so much pain
At the funeral God was crying so he made it rain.
If no one gets too close then you just die,
And no one will cry.
So that’s better you see
The less friends I have the less that will mourn me.
If I just hide inside my brain,
I won’t cause others any pain.
They won’t feel pain or sadness or loss,
They will just go on with their lives, with a toss.
So what I feel should just stay locked up inside,
That’s how mom lived, then she died.
With self expression comes so much risk,
People might not like me, tisk tisk.
It’s safer to just go along,
Then to open up and sing your own song.
Just go with the flow, don’t make a wave,
That kind of life is only for the brave.

Hey Lori - I liked the poem. I can see some of your discussion at our bipolar meeting in it. I have to say, like Tennyson's poetry, I must refrain myself at times from absorbing the ones pertaining to death - it stirs up the fear of falling into a black hole where even light - the essence of hope - cannot escape. That is EXACTLY what it feels like. Like thin ice, I tread carefully and only when I think I could sustain the fall. (Ignore the posting name - I set this up in a hurry just to see what a blog was) - kathy myrah
