I Wonder Why

Silent as a windows pane that upon I perch my head. As the rain pounds against the Transparent wall, I cannot find Any rest or peace. I wonder why Oh dear Lord it continuously rains Over me. The sun always shines on some one Else door step, Self-Woe only Barricades my only exit/ I sit in my corner chained back Wondering why no one will free Me of this great big lie. There’s a invisible thread that Awaits me every morning I take My first step. Like a wild animal I fight what I cannot see yet its there Keeping me from being free. I wonder if I really tried to do better This time in less you agree I am just A loser someone who is just making it Through life under others expense. I took a chance went outside saw that The rain wasn’t there, the sun in Shining finally over my effort to be Strong at no one else expense.
