Poetry: My life

by Erin Lewis

Created on: May 12, 2010

MY LIFE


So this is my life, so long yet so short

I’m here at near thirty with no rhyme or way

I’m afraid of tomorrow and ashamed of today

Nothing to do but wait


My art is waning, my writing mind blocked

My nursing care substandard, my career awash

My piano is dusty, my fingers are sore

Hiking now a chore, my knees don’t work


I know there is hope somewhere out there

But today life seems uneventful, boring, and dim

I have love in my life, but today I feel lonely

I guess that’s how it is, this is my life
