Poetry: The unknown

by Angella Gailey

Created on: February 15, 2011

I look around and try to see
Where I am going or what I should be
It seems that everywhere I look
I am looking at an empty book
I have no idea what I should do
Who am I?  I don’t have a clue
I know it feels right to write
Can I make I living at it?  Right now that seems out of sight
I have to find something that I can do well
I am bad with people and I don’t know how to sell
It seems like these are the only jobs around
If I think about it for too long, I feel like I will drown
In all of my self-doubt and fear
So for right now my mind I will clear
Of all of these thoughts of the unknown
Pick up my pen and paper and write something of my own
