Someone's Shoes Poem by Autumn Winds

Someone's Shoes



Some days I wanna quit
Feel like I'm walking someone else's path
Wearing someone's shoes that aren't meant for me
Or you
Some days seem to drag on
Constantly moving then suddenly gone
But still it reaches and reaches
Tryin to find what it beseeches
Foot prints have already been made here
Feeling like the time is near
Gazing in at the past throught clouded vision
Gazing at anything really with distorted vision
Bias decisions
Tryin to carve through life will precision
We don't really have control over what we've
Been born into
Just struggling through life and what we
Run into
I wonder what'll happen when I'm gone
Will everybody just move on
Or will I be kept alive through other people's eyes
I wanna be remembered when I go
For all the good things that I show
I don't wanna be a number in a book
I wanna be a person who shook
Lives of those in and around her
Someone who's loss was profound, I
Wonder what the real problem of life is
Or when young finally be come the wisest
What really happens on the day
When everything Suddenly became
Real and I could feel
And breath a move
And walk and grove
I wonder why we're born here
When there are a whole bunch of worlds out there
I wonder what goes through a newborn's eyes
If they know how important there actions lie
I wonder what goes through a soldiers mind
When he sees a bullet right before his eyes
I'f he knows he gonna die
But it's a sacrifice he chose right?
This life is twisted and sad
With all those people lying and dying
Whining and crying
Sighing and givin
From the moment they start livin
Working towards a death that's comin
Trying to escape an inevitable run in
There are those who run towards death
Throwing their lives away for something like meth
Giving up decency for theft
We strive for perfection
Try to give affection
Let the people we love know we love them
Before its to late to let them
Know how we feel
Life seems so surreal
Everything's jumbled up in a cloud of emotion
With all the commotion
I wonder how someone else feels about life
And strife
And all the things that go wrong
Or the things that make you wanna sing a song
It's all about perception
Each one of us makes a connection
That is our own
Purely ours right down to the bone
And what's the real message in what I'm writing?
These things we call thoughts that I'm
Abiding by and making mine
Just something I'm tryin to figure out
About this messed up thing we call livin
