Everyday Poem by Leah Harlow

everyday I get what I deserve
everyday I forget to rightfully serve
my friends and my fiends
That find refuge to lean
On my shoulder every night
while everyday seeks a fight
But why should I fall so hard
Why does it seem so far
That everyday you stand a mile away…
But its going to be today
That I find my way on my own
I seek my future without a tone
To my friends or my loves
I’m going to seek everyone like a dove
Carefully and cautiously
Never rude and obnoxiously
Advice is never a necessity
I’ll never love obsessively
I’ve got to learn by myself
To never be seen as a whelp
But as strong
To love and trust so long
Seeing life as an opportunity
Certainly not as an insecurity
Patient and understanding
Caring and withstanding
Just as God wants us to live.
