    Everything Drops

    This struggle has been going on for awhile now.
    And I just want to know how.
    This is going to end...if it ever does.
    When will I be able to drop the burden so that my life can go back to what it was.
    The tears that shed from beneath my eyes roll and drop.
    The sweat that perspires from my body swell and drop.
    The blood from my wounds drop.
    Still I
    Carry on..wondering what will drop next..
    Me or this burden? 
    -Quinton DeJarnette

    I meant to say the struggles of life,instead of like.But you probably already knew that.Proud of you nephew,stay strong,and continue writing your poetry.

    Be strong dear nephew,it will get better.The struggle of like is like the lessons that we learn from wise teachers,whoever they may be.We our taught that are struggles will be no more than what we can bear,I sometimes wonder if that is true,but here I am,stepping up from my struggles,only to prepare for my next fight.Life is only a teardrop from happiness.

    The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

    Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
