Maybe Not Today



The illusion of life is called upon
When the vision i see becomes unclear
I can't change the way I feel
I can only deal with the image

Why can't I close my eyes and go to sleep
Wake each day with a mind I'd like to keep
The stress of life is hard to bare
Just imagine it wasn't there

Everything will be ok
Nothing ever seems to stay
Its just the quest I have dealt for me
And one day I will be free

Geni Kelepouris

I began writing when i was 16. I enjoy expressing myself through all forms of art ( my profile pic is one of my art pieces). I have had a life full of tragedies and suffer post traumatic stress. I find that art and writing soothes my soul and allows me to heal from all the pain that has been haunting me. I have an obsession with existence and love nothing more than to discuss all the different theories of why we are here. My poems cover a range of topics from love and inspiration to complete random mania. There are also some very deep poems that i needed to write to get the sorrow from my life. I just hope whoever is reading them enjoys them. more…
