A Little Seussy

Sometimes I wish

and hope and dream

Of things I want to Be

Not just in my head

But where everyone could see

Where the whole world could feel

my excitement and zeal

Not for an illusion

But for a world that is real

But today it's not there

Or it's to small to view

Not just for me

But also for you

There used to be energy

And sparkle and light

But now my poor heart feels

It's not worth the fight

The fight to stay here

In this cold empty place

Became only harder

By the look on my face

So my light got shut out

It could no longer stay

Not with my outlook so stormy and grey

The wood of my soul

Is too wet from the tears

And my life has become crippled

By all of my fears

So now

I try and work and fight

To dry that wood with all of my might

The work will be hard

The goal long to achieve

But I wont give up

I WILL SUCCEED!

One day in the future

My wood will burn bright

In hopes of helping others

To put up a fight

But the thing that I hope we all get to see

Is that I will be happy

As things happen to Be.
