their petals unfolding
to greet the sun.

Enjoy reading poems of poets posthumously
But I appreciate more current poetry
I believe in Alive Poet Society
Surpasses Dead Poets in a cemetery
Don't get me wrong about classic

lives a feeling I can't explain,
from memories, I can't erase,
in a time I can't pace,

My chest hurts
My heart aches
Depression is like a demon
That I just can't seem to shake
Some days are worse

Some days are both
A parallel track
Sorrow and joy
Side by side
On this ride
Called life
