Cam Df Poet I do not know?

Bummer In Summer

I am floating
Floating on a path towards destruction
Brimming on insanity
I walk the line
 
Water drops caress my cheeks 
On a dry summer's day
I feel them carve their way down through the skin 
Gravity plops them onto the grimy floor
 
The flowers are blooming now
And some days I bloom too
But many days I carry the burdens of all
I weep in sorrow
I feel their pain
More than they do it seems
 
Although I torture myself
The reigns are not let loose on me 
I meet judgment and anger at the door
A welcome mat with my name on it
 
I cannot win
Ever
My kindness is only returned by few
And those I love are not always the ones returning it
My heart breaks
 
And I’m still floating 
Floating

Darren White May 29, 2017 at 2:06 PM Your Free Verse (that's what this is :) is beautiful, and filled with sadness. Writing is a good way to connect, not only to our own feelings, but also with others experiencing the same. Welcome to PoetrySoup :) Cam Df May 30, 2017 at 2:37 PM Thank you :)
