Today, I am 19

Today, I fear, is a normal day,

Until I find a reason to stay,

In this world so weak and blind,

That my dreams are ever trapped in my mind.

 

For I cannot love without a lover,

Nor can I fly until i begin to hover,

So as to make me taste my victory,

That should come after so much agony.

 

My happiness is current but not complete,

My sorrow is evergoing but obsolete,

I sigh and then begin to pray,

Because today, is too much of a normal day.

 

I long for some sort of blessing,

That would bring my dreams out of nesting,

For I am weak and utterly heartbroken,

From the scars of the life I have chosen.

 

A life that challenges all that is wrong,

A life I have been battling for so long,

Finally I can take little more, It is time!

For today, at least, Normality will not haunt my mind.

tx, i very carefully chose my words for this one so that every 2 lines or so is related to each other AND to a bigger picture (the main point and expression of the poem) so u have to read carefully
