My Thoughts Poem by Bancroft Boreland

Life it seems is a vast forest
In which I am lost
Love it seems is a precious treasure
For which I cannot pay the cost
Some dreams it seems are only dreams
U cannot change the world
If you cannot change its people
I’ll say this but don’t ask me the reason
Good it seems needs evil
The world at times seems so bizarre
Because most of us don’t even
Know why we are here

At nights I close my sad eyes
And try to make myself disappear
But then I always open them to
Realize the unchanging reality
That we are all trapped here…
