It’s been a while since I’ve written a poem, it’s like that sometimes. I like to write poems that everyone can relate to, and I think I’ve done that with this one. This poem came to me late in the night. It’s a simple poem expressing the emotions I feel and felt throughout my life. The individual metaphors I used throughout the poem are not all that original but using them all together in one piece helps make them my very own. At least that’s how I feel. LOL I’m no expert, I just write what God lays on my heart. I do hope you enjoy my poems and if not, that is okay too. Thanks for reading!
Some Days
Most days the birds are singing
and the sun is shining bright
but some days storms are raging
clouding all the light
Some days my faith is weakened
and I lack the words to pray
Some days my path’s a struggle
those days I lose my way
Most days I have it together
and life for me is great
Some days my heart is broken
those days are ones I hate
Some days I climb the mountain
just to enjoy the view
Some days I lack the strength
those days are only few
Most days are filled with love
those days make me glad
Most days I laugh and smile
but some days I’m only sad
Some days I sail the ocean
to get to the other side
Some days I feel like sinking
those days I want to hide
Some days are better than others
but one thing remains true
on “all” the days of my journey
it’s God that helps me through
