become a poet

I never dreamed
and was never ambitious
like people are usually
in search for happiness

and yet I found
happiness abound
joy too
when God I found

my life was miserable
I never could get away
so I think
God found me the way

it has no dream
it has no ambition
it has only
satisfaction!

My third birthday party
walking with a toy umbrella
i'm running down a verdant hill
unable to stop unable to be still
end in a river and drowning no its ok
anything really now i can't stay
"you know what I mean"
i don't know
"say aaaahhhh"
"can you walk in a straight line?"
hopefully it will come to me soon
blue heights and fire
a book i got it off the net
i haven't read it yet
i'm only 17 but
feel out of steam
i need the umbrella
stop me running
got years to go
but that river's grown a faster flow
