Tell the Wind

Tell the Wind


perhaps your life is
made of desperation
illnesses and sometimes truth

people disappoint you
family disowns you
and still you exist

still you wake daily
take up the reins of your occupation
to spend precious time just doing

perhaps your life is
molded firmly 
desire being for just one more day
one more hour at the stone wheel

but, you can tell the wind
you can breathe into it and breathe from it
and perhaps you will receive an answer

	just tell the wind
