Poetry: Struggle in life

by Rebecca Delekta

Created on: April 24, 2008

Lock & Key

Lonely desperation,
Under lock and key.
Drugs and secrets,
Hide the real me.

Tired of excuses, to make me want to live.
I don't want to take, I only want to give.

Hollowness deep inside, the wave crashes over me.
The truth and pain, under lock and key.

Discovery of another world, finding meaning to life.
Real solutions to my problems, instead of a blade of a knife.

A life of exploring, changing the world step by step.
Letting go of everything, from which under lock and key I've kept.

So many travels, memories waiting for me.
Waiting to begin the journey, If only I could find the key.
