Have You Ever?

By countrygirl

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Have you ever wanted something? Have you ever waited for something for so long? And then when it arrives or it happens, you can't believe it! It's like you go into shock, your mind can't comprehend the difference. And it all happens in a split-second. Your life is changed forever! Now you have to rearrange your world. You have to tell people new things about you. Old things must be put away or thrown out. Should I go here? Should I move there? Will other people understand? And who cares if they do anyway! Your life is changed forever! You worked for this. You gave up things for this. You prayed for this. Now you must make sure this is for real. Now you must test the sureness of it all. Your life is changed forever! Written March 4th, 2002 © on Mar 04 2002 09:55 AM PST   0 • 9
