Analysis of Feel
Eugenia Weldy 1980 (Jackson,Ms)
I once thought I knew how to live
What the right way was to laugh
To smile, cry, how to feel
How to be me or even
Who I was in this world...
I question all of me
Ignorance is all I have
Never knew that I would feel
Like a paper full of Red ink corrections
Living each day breath holding
Hesitation... tip toeing lightly...
Walking on egg shells...
