I am Lead

July 30, 2010
By Anonymous

Sleeping, but not dead
In this ocean, I am lead
With a splash, and a noise
I sink down, with other toys
There a lay, until I wake
Till I rise, for my own sake
I am bright,and I am strong
I'll lie in wait, not too long

I used to draw, and I loved it, but due to distractions and some tragedy in my life, I stopped and cant find inspiration. This poem is talking about my love of drawing, and that although I've stopped, the artist in me will rise again.
