A Conversation Poem by Through Hazel Eyes

When sitting alone or for the world to see
I feel the walls of life closing in on me
The sadness I feel pushes me to a world inside myself
Filled with thoughts I should leave on a lonely shelf

These thoughts don't leave -
They linger inside
Running in circles-
No place to hide

I've been this way for a very long time

The constant struggle between
Right - Wrong
Reason - Rhyme
Can you tell me the difference between
love and hate
Tell me the difference between
coincidence and fate
Tell me the difference between
wrong and right
I know not everything is
black and white

Well, things aren't easy to differentiate
The things you love maybe easier to hate
The difference is in your heart, your, soul, your mind
Think of the present - Leave the past behind

Future happiness everyone seeks.
It may not happen today - tomorrow-
or next week
But it won't happen if you never start
Trust in yourself - Listen to your heart

You make your own happiness
No one can do. The one and only thing
that is Happiness for you
Today is the day for your future to start
Reach for what you want in
In your mind - In your soul-
In your Heart
