    The Lotus
    I think it makes you happy.

    Some where deep inside.

    To be sad and unhappy.

    To make you lose your mind.

    Your life could end tomorrow.

    Yet you drown yourself in sorrow.

    Of the things that might have been , could have been.

    Where will this get you I ask you my friend.

    How does this make life better again?

    I just want to know.

    Because I'd love to watch you grow.

    Like a lotus out of the darkness.

    And emerge victorious and beautiful.

    I know you have it in you.

    To stop pushing away thoughs who care.

    And for just once let some one be there.

    To help you light your way.

    Don't be afraid.

    Things won't aways be the same.

    Things get better if you let them.

    So please try to learn this lesson.

    Life is short so live it well.

    And please try not to dwell.

    Cause it's to short to waste.

    On things you can not change.

    I'm not sure that writers ever say anything new, or that hasn't been said before, but each person or generation finds a different way to reach new audience with the thoughts, wisdom and answers passed from one heart to the next. Many short lines have done just that, hopefully it will help others along as it helped you in a hidden way writing it, well done, stop by and give me a read when you find moment, be well k

    If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry.

    Emily Dickinson (1830-1886) American poet.
