I Write Poem by Debra Masky

I am sad and I am depressed
I am sad and I am distressed
And don’t know what do I do?
Do I cry my heart out?
Or just call to you?
Will you hear me?
Do I try to talk you?
Will you understand my plight - for
I am left standing here on life’s cross roads
Just thinking what I should do.
Is this called mid-life crisis?

So I just walk out of the house
And sit in the garden
I grab a piece of paper
And write what comes to my mind.
For the words that flow out from my mind
Are the words from my heart.

Alas! I am hurt.
