Poetry: Struggle in life

by A. Jae

Created on: January 19, 2007   Last Updated: May 14, 2007

Life in my box



Is there a world out there?
Outside my little box?
I see the shadows and faces
Images and Silhouettes
But I don't recognize them



I hear voices and cries
In the silence of my room
Calling me out,
Asking to fight
As I try to resist with all my might.



I can't see my fears,
But I know they are there
I'll wait for that moment
When I can strike,
And hit the world with great incise



I must face them someday
And call them out by name,
But that will come eventually.
For now, I will study and talk to nobody
About the things I am planning in my head



So when I go,
I will know
I will have no fear
And I will cry no tears
My strength will be from within



My mind will be clear
And my power strong
My Will and determination will not fail
I am the master of my own fate.
And I predict my future state.
