Give Me Back My Smile

By sidewinder

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Words today do not come easy, For my heart is heavy, A burden I must bear, Shall it come a time that I must part with what I know is right? Or must I simply endure? As the seasons come on me like falling raindrops, My patience is coming to a close, For those few who dare press the issue, How is it that I've come full circle and yet pain overwhelms my heart? Mother Earth give me strength, Help me get through this bitter day, Shine a light on my soul, Give me back my strength, So that I can continue on.
