Sarah Sisson Poems

I have walked along bitter
paths and held on to pain.

I once thought that my life was
...

Have I no more to give?
I reach in to my reservoir.

I ask for the beauty to engulf me.
...

Driving slow but feeling fast
my heart beats out of my chest.
There is nothing more distracting
than undue anticipation.
...

A rebel was I, in a sweeter time.
The norm today is much worse.

I look back and see what was so tainted...
...

It isn't about how hight you get up on the scale
or the decor of the places you have been to....

...the other road you yourself have paved.
...

When life isn't fun and shocking enough
its time to get your guns out; time to get tough.

So you can fight through to what you really want.
...

That man looks good
in his sharp suit

I'm blesses that this
...

When I was was little all I did was
dream, dream, dream about being
thin, beautiful and dating a rock star.
...

Ambition is crushing me, making me wise.
To this I had no idea I could despise...

...the consumption that is taking all the fun.
...

When mountains far away I see...
It's simple just to climb a tree...

...and see more of the mountain base.
...
