Blur

Try to find good in each day
It helps me along my way 
I look around
Trying to see where I'm bound
Hope one day I'll be found
Sometimes not so sure
Life's a blur
Anger in my heart
Won't let it tear me apart
I have to be better than that
Pulling a smile out of my hat
Concentrating not on what's bad
That makes me sad
Sometimes it is hard
Especially if my soul feels jarred
Lost in a world full of hate
Looking for a clean slate
When I'm down
I refuse to drown
Stuck in a thought
Hard fought
Your mind 
I find
Is a rough place to get lost
Pain is usually the cost
Hard to separate 
Love and hate
Fate
Fear leaves you stuck on the same page
Rage
Leads down an empty road
Doubles your load
Step away
Open the door to a new day
Try to smile
It will help after awhile 
Make it your style.

"Rage // Leads down an empty road // Doubles your load // Step away" There's some clarity and vision in this poem called simply 'Blur'. -Richard
