Change

Change

A Poem by Smithie Austin McLyn

I used to take my chances even when all the odds were stacked up against me

Now I just stand aside and wait for the fear of asking to eat me up alive.

Once a person who didn’t care if they won or lost as long as he knew that he tried….

Now I stand afraid with a question inside me eating up my hopes

Not knowing how to react on such a sudden reaction

So many questions that go through my head and no of them I can answer

Feeling like a person out of order that needs help to keep in track with life

So many struggles and there aren’t many things I can do about it but adapt to my environment

The desires to keep fighting have left me and now giving up being my only option

The pain that is kept inside me is dissolving all my hopes in love.

Sometimes it would be better if your heart was the one who did all the talking

Because some words may never come out the way they should….
