Edwin Hofert Poet Rhyme

Here We Go Again

Here We Go Again

Sometimes I see it coming.
sometimes I feel it start.
It’s like a storm is brewing,
I start to fall apart.

So much to be happy for,
these tears I can’t control.
The product of the brokenness
that used to be my soul.

One day on the mountain top
there’s nothing I can’t see.
Next day when I’m waking up
the mountain sits on me.
  
With darkness all around me
and the shadows closing in.
I grab my heart and hold on tight
cause here we go again.

All those fears come rushing back
there’s no place I can hide.
It’s not much new it’s what I do
just one more storm to ride.

I bared my soul so many times
no more I must confess.
It’s not about the goodness
or the strength that I possess.

I’m right back where I used to be.
I’m right back where I’ve been.
I’m not where I want to be
and here we go again.

Edwin C Hofert

John Fleming January 10, 2018 at 8:24 AM I have not seen you around on the "Soup" for quite a while, Edwin. I hope you have come through this, quite obviously, bleak and despairing period, and are now beginning to feel stronger and more positive again; your poem makes a powerful impression! My very warmest regards, Edwin! Your friend. :) john

Judy Konos December 14, 2017 at 4:04 AM Well! You grabbed our hearts "Years Ago" and we never could get them back so I see very little difference? You? Meanwhile cheer your good looking self up. Just roll over and send that mountain crashing into the deep blue Sea! Miss you too! Judy Edwin Hofert December 14, 2017 at 6:43 AM Hi Judy!
