You should realize
You see me
Some days I will be so happy
I can't stop laughing at the most simplest things
Like you raising your eyebrows at me
Or because the lady over there checked her mail box for the daily paper
Other days I will be so sad
I will stare at the wall blankly
and if anybody asks me if I'm okay
The answer will be of course
But inside, I'm really not
Another day i could be so empty
That the only way to feel something
is to feel the blood drip down my arm
As I laugh out loud
Embracing the pain
Other days I would be so exhausted
I couldn't move an inch
Not even your smile could make me blink an eye
I want to never wake up
Now most days,
I'm okay
Or I'm 'alright'
I can be lots of different things at lots of different times
I guess that's me
I guess that's life

I wrote this peom when i was out walking my dog at night, and i got inspired. The world around us is breathtaking, and sometimes we are so oblivious. We are so damn lucky to live on this planet. We take life for granted.
