THE POEMS BRING ME BACK TO MYSELF <br /> <br />The poems bring me back to myself <br />I begin to live again – <br /> <br />Without the poems <br />I would have to make a new life- <br /> <br />I do not know if I am capable of it- <br /> <br />A life without poems without poetry <br />With other words perhaps- <br /> <br />I am too old to slowly write the long narrative <br />I never was capable of before <br /> <br />Little poems <br />Little lines <br />What I am capable of now.<br /><br />Shalom Freedman<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-poems-bring-me-back-to-myself/
