Cautious Steps Poem by flooplesnap cookie

My mind is racing
About tomorrow and facing
And the fact of what she might be thinking
Causes me to start shaking
I want to run
But then she’ll have her fun
To think tomorrow I’ll start where it all begun
Soon everyone will know her tricks
And all those things that make her do flips
I want to be free
And just float within a dream
My drawings say it all
About everything I saw
All the things that cause me to withdraw
And why I change from just one call
I put my pen to paper
And for the record I don’t hate her
A picture unfolds
As a story is told
A story so real
And at points makes you ill
My face remains kind
Though that story is mine
How is it I’ve come to find?
Just trade words with lines
I’ve wanted to speak
But she always made me feel weak
So I was confined
In all besides my mind
My thoughts would race
And I would begin pace
Jacket on hair down
Was the way I was always found
But Friday night
I was out of mom sight
Which made her ready to fight
And some filled with fright
A new home was granted
While moms thoughts were a little slanted
I opened up
And in return found love
With mom in her white suit, looking like a stud
Will soon meet my friend named mud
I’ve been rocking in the corner
Always afraid to order
She’ll soon find with less than a quarter
Her life will be shorter
A fake smile
Can only last a little while
A twitch of her eye
The truth is in sight
The hour is 1: 08
So it’s getting late
For now I must go
But rest assured she wont walk away looking like snow.
