My Calling

Reasonings

Too few
Hopefully more

My resentment flairs
My will ebbs
Still looking elsewhere

I won’t just leave
I care too much
My heart is here
Have more to give

Want answers to my whys
Know I’ll never truly know
Doors of opportunity may open
But I still hold hope
Knowing this is my calling

Sounds like real interior monologue...has the inner echo of seeking and searching. Nice job!--Ngoc

Amazing poem Mrs. Rush, I believe it to have a personal meaning. It really speaks to me and I must state that this poem will be the one to help me threw this week :)
