I Wish My Life Was A Dream©

Felina, , , , , , , , , ,

Hanging on to the rooftop of my house as it floats down the angry river

The screeching wind howls constantly between my ears

Bodies of my friends, neighbors and loved ones pass me by

I’m chilled to the bone as my clothes are soaked to my skin

My belly rumbles from days of hunger

My eyes are swollen from the tears that won’t stop flowing

I feel enraged with piercing grief

While grateful for my so called life

I crave sleep but fear I will lose my grip and be swallowed up by the river

Sleep will only bring dreams of the many lost to the storm

I can only pray now that god will have mercy on me

And all those who remain

Oh how I wish my life was a bad dream

I'm a wife, a mother, a writer, and a friend. I enjoy sharing feelings, experiences and my poetry. There are many things that I am good at, but I'm sure there are just as many things that I am bad at. I try hard not to judge for we know no one is perfect. I can however say that although I have a great deal of patience, sometimes the patience tank runs dry. If you value me, I will always value you. Here I will share some of my poetry, my opinions along with some of my stories. I hope you enjoy(ed) your visit to poetsareangels.com. If you read and liked what you saw, please hit the LIKE button. Always feel free to leave friendly comments. Please no vulgarity as my teenagers frequent this site. "Happiness is the pathway to a memorable existence." Felina
