It's time

I hear the watch.. Tick tock.. Tick tock in my ear Trying to figure out why time makes me fear Maybe its cause im scared of the future., the unknown Or maybe its just time to accept im a queen and go sit on my thrown Feeling numb day in and day out By now I must know that thats not what life is all about Its not just heartache and pain There's light in this darkness and umbrellas for the rain Smiles and laughter is all I want No one can tell me without a doubt That I am not strong and vigorous That i can feel the thorns but still smell the rose So today I am smiling, and putting on my crown knowing I'm a queen .... And then it's time to strike a pose

I can feel the angst in your words and these kind of conditions can be so difficult to deal with... Poetry is a great way to deal with them.. a perfect catharsis to express what we supress.. Welcome to poetry soup..
