Horses On A Carousel Poem by Gloraly Gomez

One by one they gallop by
Up and down, first low then high
One black, one brown, one gray, one white
They never stop, they never die

Much like the horses, thoughts of despair
Recycle through my brain somewhere
One good, one bad, one unaware
This endless cycle is so unfair

In front of friends, smile ear to ear
I could explain but they won't hear
A broken heart, a lonely tear
Reasons I'd rather just disappear...
