A Life At Odds

A Life At Odds

A Poem by Paper Doll
"

I decided to try my hand at rhyming. There were some factories, an argument, a move, and some hope.

"

Skies of iron huddle

over this wasteland

it's paths beffuddle

As I walk this land

searching for the sun

through false clouds and smoke

Now I run

this must be a joke

I see nothing

but a monster frothing

It's teeth a gleam

it's breath steam

Burning through this soul mist

here I stand clenching my fist

Demanding what's mine by right

so I don't have to fight

For every little thing

a breath  of fresh air

a new beginning

It isn't fair

but no one said it was

so here I live because

I want to believe

I will recieve

I feel you breathing in the atmosphere. I like the ryhming and I thing the ending is justified in a manner of finding pece with all things that reain out of reach. nice poem hope to read more soon.

Perhaps it is because insomnia and computers don't mix, but I'm having trouble figuring out how the last line, "I will receive" fits. It feels a little forced in the end.
