Run with the wind
 
because who knows when the wind will blow
or from what direction?
 
who, as a mortal sack, can stand
against the wind?
 
will that wind blow blood?
or fame?
or the illusive to all
happyness?
 
tilt, as a human
against the wind
push it back
because
you run
or you push back
what else can you do
 
in the wind?

    I have a serious response and a silly one.

    Serious:  I love this poem, it makes you question yourself and what you've done, and what you should do.  Very interesting.

    Silly:  As to what else can I do in the wind?  Well, what kind of wind is it ... what does it smell like? If it stinks, I run away from it.  Huh, maybe that's my problem ... I need to stand against the stinky wind ... maybe that's part of what I need to change about current events in my life.  Wait, this answer isn't so silly anymore.  Look what you did Trav!  No, really, just purely because it made me stumble on that thought ... great job!   :-D

Say Goodnight

Close your eyes
Under starlit skies...
It is harder to share pain than it is joy. Sometime with the help of friends and family, we endure our pains. But sometimes we have to stand alone. But if you maintain a postive outlook and endure cheerfully, we will find more company along the way....
uggghh...

If

If...
for my love....
