Got It ~ A poem(?)

Every time I think

I've got it figured out

something comes along

to storm my walls of doubt

To undermine my thoughts

and submarine my dreams

remind me one more time

that nothing's as it seems

And just when everything

looks to've crumbled all apart

you reach beyond my walls again

to tear away my heart

so when the dust has settled

and all the hopes are lost

when misery, my only friend,

has counted out the cost

and fled for greener valleys

escaped my wintry hold

to feel the sun upon her face

to slough this bitter cold

I think again 'I've got it!'

I know how life will be

I'll fall asleep alone again

and dream you're still with me
