Opposites

These are the thoughts that dance through my sleepless nights

..And then slowly crawl all over my drowsy days

Age passing, and I wasn't a kid enough..Playfulness, crushed under experience

Being so young for so long..Youth’s anxiety outpacing age’s wisdom

Not going for what’s worth pursuing

Not being worth pursuing

Not allowing love to ameliorate the cruelty of my nature

Caring for people and things over which I have no control

Becoming estranged and distant 

Suffocating from attention

Disappearing from this earth, childless

Leaving behind me an orphaned child


Being less than what the world deserves

Being more than what people can comprehend
