Identity Crisis

Who am I?
Who are you?
Who are we?

When is my time?
What am I supposed to do?
Where do I belong?
Why?

Walking free
Just you and me
Cant help but think
Alive and deeply in love this is
The way it was always 
supposed to be

But they shade me from the sunshine,
And let in all the rain.

When life offers up
Lies in the place of

Elevator moves sideways
		
		The pickles are dry
		The butter is hard
		The cornbread has too much sugar

		And now it’s a cake

The love we had was powerful
You were the one to say I love you
The love we had was supposed to be forever

Silent snowfall covers the blooms and newly budding green
Hear the mourning doves sorrowful cries

I am supposed to cry
When somebody dies
But even though I try
A tear I do not cry

When Grandma passed
It was my last
A glance I cast
Into my past

Supposed

You don't have 
what I need
you r too broken
for me
you don't listen
you don't see

of who you are supposed to be.

Premium Member I Love Trees

It is quiet 
and dark
and the mind thinks of it's own
thinking.
I breathe
thoughts
I cannot see 
the trees.
or the way 
things are supposed to be.

Feelings

Feeling empty in the afternoon
Feeling sad in the evening alone
Can't sleep at night
Life is always on fight
It's not supposed
To be exposed
Like this.

Ferocious

They tell me the dog
is supposed to be ferocious
which comes back to me

As I pet him and the teeth
sink in, neglecting to listen
when I should

As always.

Golf

Golf a game of supposed gentlemen
Played in exotic and scenic glen
With a stick and tiny balls
Which either rolls or crawls
Or chuck chucks like a lethargic hen
