2-2-11

so i've been pretty stressed the last few days about tons of stuff. So last night my mind was going crazy thinking about grama jones and school and whatever spencer's deal is. yeah and i knew that if i went in to my job interview this morning with all of it on my mind that i would do really poorly. so i tried to remember what i used to do to clear my head. i usually play the piano but it was like 11 so there was no where i could go. then i remembered that i used to write poems to clean my head out. it took me like 10 mins and i just rattled it off without even thinking about it. for some reason making my problems rhyme makes them make sense in my head. haha so here's what i wrote just for fun:

it seems there's times in one's life
when time just floats on by
without much effort on my part
my days each hit the sky
its in those times when i think to me
is this really real?
but on those days, i don't learn much
and there's not much to feel
then slowly, in a flash of light
the table starts to turn
i find it's on the harder side
when i really learn
i see myself just trudging by
not knowing what to do
and then i free myself from pride
and finally turn to you
why is it that i feel alone
when i need you most
but you can be the window
when the world's door's closed
i'll turn to you and try my best
to listen to your will
i'll cleanse myself and find some time
to sit and just be still
what you want is sometimes hard
for me to understand
i'll listen to the still small voice
and not my own demand
it will be rough, i know it will
but i can make it through
by opening a broken heart
and listening to you
i'm grateful for the things in life
that make it worth the pain
because through you i can be clean
and free from any stain
you made me who i am today
and who i will become
it helps to know of who i am
and where we all came from
thanks for the love you give to me
unconditionally
but mostly thanks for simply
for listening to me
