Disappointments I battle with every step as they come on to me as a tornado <br /> <br />Every misstep I take I curse myself for not getting it right <br /> <br />The sheer foolishness of it makes me try and give myself a kick <br /> <br />I try my best I keep telling me <br /> <br />But that’s no consolation for the wounded soul <br /> <br />I want what I want, neither less nor more it yells <br /> <br />The soul is the king always almost it confirms <br /> <br />I may take a right but left it is if that’s where it wants to go <br /> <br />It steers me from most storms as it goes <br /> <br />But I do get caught in one of life’s tornadoes <br /> <br />Spluttering, choking I try to get a foothold <br /> <br />But the fury of the things overwhelm me a whole <br /> <br />Life batters me throws me to the rocks <br /> <br />Battered ragged I almost lose it to the wormhole <br /> <br />A dolphin comes by to give me company in the empty sea <br /> <br />But the song of the soul drives it away as far as it can go<br /><br />Leonard Rebello<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/here-we-go-again-16/
