Take in your hands

by Anna   Mar 19, 2005


Mournful cries and agony
What the shallow mind can not see

Shattered windows side by side
Carried off by the tide

For all the joy life may bring
Comes along a bee that will sting

And for what each future will hold
Is a story waiting to be told

It is nothing but a suicidal wish
To sit around waiting for bliss

Take in your hands the life you are
given
To achieve a dream one must be driven

To live perfect is a childish dream
To live happy is easier than it may seem

    Nice poem....I like the message it portrays. You've done a good job w/ sentence fluency though some of the poem doesn't flow exactly the same. I'm usually not a rhyming-poem fan, but, you've done a good job.
