Sometimes…. 

Sometimes I feel alive

sometimes I feel dead

sometimes my heart hurts

sometimes it’s all in my head

Sometimes I feel lonely

sometimes I need my space

sometimes there are no problems

sometimes I’ve got too much to face

Sometimes things go right

sometimes things go wrong

sometimes I fit right in

sometimes I just don’t belong

Sometimes I want to laugh

sometimes I want to cry

sometimes I want to live

sometimes I want to die

Sometimes I want to face life

sometimes I want to be gone from sight

sometimes I want to run

sometimes I want to fight

Sometimes I want to sing

sometimes I want to shout

sometimes I know the answer

sometimes I’m in doubt

Sometimes I’m happy

sometimes I’m sad

sometimes I’m scared

sometimes I’m mad

Sometimes I want to win

sometimes I want to lose

sometimes I listen to music

sometimes I watch the news

Sometimes I make decisions

sometimes I’m told what to do

sometimes I find life hard

sometimes so do you…..

  1. Pollie , Glad to see you back here in S. C. as it has been quite a while since you were  on the site. Enjoyed reading Sometimes and thanks for sharing it with us. 

  2. Hi pollie.
    Sometimes it’s the freedom of choice. Only I, can choose my reactions based on what I perceive at that very moment.
    It’s part of growing up. Part of being human.
    On the other hand,
    how much of what we perceive is artificially created around us?
    Ever been deceived by anyone?
    Ever been lied to? Remember, a fib is a lie also.
    Ever put your trust in a single person or organization or government?
    It’s best to always have doubts, always question, always search for answers.
    Thanks for writing this blog.

    1. Absolutely agree davidrv. we are all in charge of ourselves .. Ive been deceived and lied to more times than care to remember … same with trust .. not everyone who smiles at you is a friend.. Thanks for input ..

  3. Good points to ponder Ms. Pollie. I believe that what you have written here is a very nice rendition of maturing through having lived. Not true?
    Thank you for your pleasant words.

  4. Mr. davidrv.
    I do understand your statement, ” It’s best to always have doubts, always question, always search for answers. ” Would this mean that one must be skeptical of all things? If this were true then at what point does one start to fully enjoy the wonders of being alive?
    Have a nice day Sir. This you need not question or doubt. I say it from the heart.

  5. I liked your poem. I found myself smiling because it sounds just like me! Living in the land of ‘sometimes’ actually keeps me sane. Imagine how it would be if everything was always or never :).
