PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I look to the stars for answers
to the problems that I face.
Hoping to see my answers within them
to keep up with life’s pace.

I wish for someone to take me
by the hand and run.
Run away from life’s problems;
for us all to become one.

I wish to know every face
of those I see at school.
I want to love them each their own,
but only I’m made the fool.

They won’t love each other
because they do not see it.
Fights and hate fill their homes,
their hearts an empty pit.

I want to fix their problems
and give them the answers to life.
But the answers to life I’m searching for
deeply in great strife.

I will continue to search for the answers
until they become clear.
There are many problems facing the world
and so many of them are near.

I need to fix my life before
I can begin to fix another’s.
I want to call my next door neighbors
my sisters and my brothers.

Until the day that we join hands
I’ll continue to search the stars.
Regardless of the cuts and bruises,
I’ll be proud of my scars.
