Within My Mind A Time To Find Poem by Joseph Blitch

Meditating to unwind while only memories, I find,
Somewhere in time, somewhere within my mind.
Few good, mostly bad, happy outweighed by sad,
At times made glad, yet over all making me mad.

Being my minds boss, I desire to cast all the dross,
Some things without loss, yet others at huge cost.
Things I would flee; how could I, it was only me?
Was I then to blind to see, what my fate was to be?

Wishing to upward rise, above clouds of the skies.
Finding to my surprise, I was just one of the guys!
Hoping to rise with levity but falling with gravity.
Keeping my vanity while holding on to my sanity.

Thinking love I had earned, but events they turned,
And deep within I burned since no love was returned.
Now with heart breaking, my soul would be aching.
Through my mind raking, this treatment I'm taking.

My minds eye would say, there is absolutely no way,
Be it night or come day, this must pass and not stay.
With rain drops a few, clouds giving way to sky blue.
There is rainbows hue, the sign of beginnings a new.
