Life is a Thunderbolt

Submitted by Barbara Writes on Wed, 2011-09-28 02:22

I went from fantastic high
to tragic low
happy state of being
to sad state of existence
that's life,
take it as it comes
or leave it as it is

knowing how is the best understanding
i will;l certainly do that
hope the world is ready for a crazy person like me

there is no in between for me. i tend to be on way extreme or the other extreme.
hehee
many find me problematic because i am true to what i feel and think

finding Neopoet and learning to write better poetry is the best thing i could have come across. i can write that which i can't talk about effectively or express accurately.
