Captain Awesome Pants Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 I was in a poetry mood, you see. It doesn't strike often, but when it does, I sit down and take advantage of it. And this time it turned... Dr. Seuss-ish. o_O I guess. ~~~~~~~~ We open with the girl The one misunderstood The one with thoughts conflicting Swirling under her hood There was something in her head In the way it pounded It hurt and it ached She felt so grounded She needed to fly Be free like a bird No one would let her No one would say the word That pounding It told her she needed to get out That she needed to run Needed to burn her doubt She needed to get out of that house It said again and again She needed out of this life Every now and then Get out, get out It screamed and shouted She always agreed Its words were undoubted She needed a change A break from the norm She needed that freedom So she ran from her dorm She was out! She was out! She was free at last All that sadness, melancholy Was a thing of the past But then she thought to herself "Is this what I wanted?" YES! YES IT IS! The voice said undaunted "No, no it isn't" She shook her head and sighed “Did I make the right decision?” As she hung her head and cried She wanted it back The warm house and the friends The girl turned on her heels To go back for amends That voice didn’t like it Not one little bit The voice wanted its way It would throw a big fit But the girl knew what she wanted She stood resolute She silenced that voice She put it on mute And with renewed vigor She headed back home To be with friends and family From whom she’d never again roam And now dear readers As you have seen The young girl mentioned And what she had been Has never been far From the truth, you see For that young girl mentioned Just happens to be me ~~~~~~~~~ And if you care to be a kind soul and go view it here, and perhaps drop a comment *coughorafavcough* if you have an account, that'd be lovely. :D RIGHT HUR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
