Reality

For years and years I have had shelter Of love and warmth Of life so tender And then I took My first big step To break away From all I had To join the world of dogs and sharks To earn my keep And learn to bark It is so hard And I am low I wish I could Just drop and go But when I think of mum and dad what they went through to buy us bread Tough and low That this might be It is what we have That is, Reality.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Have a blessed New Year.
