The Wind Blows Poem by Char Pattrick

The Wind Blows

Rating: 4.5


With the wind blowing the leaves off the trees

Fallen angels rise and I am begging them please

To keep me here as I am allowed to be free

Of all pain and suffering, can you see me

Look into my heart and you shall see

Why there is hope and love and a family

I can give but cannot take what is not mine

Forever more shall I fight to be all but gone

From this desolate feeling and find what I am

Do you see what I am looking for in all this

Can not begin to explain what my life is

Will not hide from what I am and who I be

Can not stand to see others hurt as you see

Will not fear what is to come and only past

Will share but in honesty, life is always fast

I can never keep up with others and emotion

Guess I will learn that in very slow motion

Will make many friends and forget enemies

As time passes on and the day shall leave

I am here and watching over others grieve

I see what is special in all and cherish that

As life is not what it seems to some what

You see as normal may not be for another

Can take life seriously as there is no other

Will wait and see who knows what I mean

As I talk and meet others and see them lean

On what is only a false hope and erase

What they wish they had not been a maze

Life is how you perceive it and no other way

Means life is special and can be taken away

Enjoy what you have and do not make others

Feel like they are missing out on brothers

Sisters and parents as you do not see why

It affects others as much as it makes me cry

Listen to your heart and follow your dreams

Be what makes you happy as it seems

This is a rarity in life now and is hard to find

Ah! this is the biggest question of all. All anyone can do, is balance in our lives, between those we love, and those we love intimately and cannot live happily without. A fine read. Thank you for being so gently honest and clear. We cannot take anyone or thing for granted in life, and as your title suggests to Tai, we should see which way the wind blows us. Sweet dreams Tai
