Description
Thinking Out Loud
Sitting here in my chair
Looking out my window
Wondering what’s in the air
Waiting to surprise me
I think about the day
What it might hold
Hoping against hope today
Might be the one
Waiting to hear
What I want to know
Even though it’s fear
Of the real truth
Truth can set you free
Heard those words
Yet again meant for me
To guide me on this path
I listen and try
To keep those words close
I understand why
I am how I am
I can make that move
So my life will be better
I won’t have to prove
Myself ever again
Till then I am sitting
Waiting for the day
Knowing that quitting
Is not an option

Great poem. And the pic is super
Open your wallet. Make a trail of dollar bills going out your front door. Then follow it. (Does anyone ever get it that I find huge egos and motivational forms monstrously funny)
Yes the truth will set you free, but many people after they gain their freedom would rather be enslaved to the lies, very sad!!!! Nice work on this poem/story!!!
I like what you've done with the 1-3 rhyming. It leaves me with a feeling of sitting on the edge of my seat, waiting ... Nicely done!
You chose a good picture to match these words Maz. well done
I so understand wonderful work warm hug, Linda
We have nothing to fear but fear itself (Franklin Delano Roosevelt).
I have spent many hours looking through the window just wondering, Very nicely written my poet friend. I like your photos but I love your poetry, Very nice
I've been in a similar position, wondering what the future will bring, what challenges the day will demand I face, or what answers linger just beyond my ability to reach them...it's a fundamental element of the human condition, and you've captured it brilliantly. What the day brings is always something never revealed until...well...until it's revealed and at times, all we can do is sit and wait...something I've become far too familiar with! But ah...this is a lovely poem, its truth is such a part of its beauty too!
My Gran used to say "everything comes to those that wait" ,how true that saying is :o)..Excellent writing Marilyn Mick
I hear ya Marilyn. Great image to capture the mood of your narrative,
