Poignant comparisons....For Georgia.

by Peter Duncombe   Oct 31, 2011


Does your life compare to a box of chocolates,
a bowl of cherries or a walk in the park?
Or do you see it as an endless uphill climb,
a constant struggle maybe just a losing war?

Are you forever giving in to others demands,
feeling insecure and often left in the dark?
Being taken advantage of when you're feeling low,
all your emotions just dashed to the floor.

When you try to fit in to the world around you,
do you feel like a million piece jigsaw?
Never really being accepted always left in the box,
to gather dust with the lid firmly closed.

Love seems to avoid you at every turn,
false promises given then fade once more.
Is your life just like this can you honestly relate?
Then you'll know exactly how I feel, I suppose!
