Sometimes i want to die

                                               Sometimes I want to die
                                               surrounded by one big lie
                            
                                               about Me


                                               Sometimes I want to die
                                               stuck in their web; 'a fly'

                                               can't See


                                               Sometimes I want to die
                                               no matter how they try


                                               I'm Free


                                               Sometimes I want to die
                                               I still have wings to fly

                                               
                                               Just Be



                                               Sometimes I want to die
                                               tired of every next 'try'


                                               Divine Decree


                                               Sometimes I want to die
                                               jump far .. from a-high

                                               Effortlessly


                                              Sometimes I want to die
                                              tied to a hollow tree

                                   
                                              broken Birdie

     
                                              Sometimes I want to die
                                              then, reaching for the sky ...


                                              upon One knee



                                             
                                               Sometimes I want to die
                                               "Love' has passed me by .

                                             
                                               Mercilessly


                                               Sometimes I want to die
                                               heart-ache known by I

                        
                                               Treacherously


                                              Sometimes I want to die
                                              nary a trusted ally

                                              Woefully


                                              Sometimes I want to die
                                              before I blot my blurry eye

                                              
                                             Blessed by Goddess- She!!!

                                             p.s.
                                             No wonder - playing my first of many a lead role;
                                             as Joan of Arc, in grade 8 - resonated so deeply ..
                                             within my very essence -even at that early 'age.'


                                             Wise young Sage ..
                                             no 'kangaroo court,' cared  ..
                                             to listen to                                     


   
                                             Years later, learning of Nelson Mandela;
                                             forced into virtual exile .. imprisoned by the same insane ..
                                             whom once seemingly revered, adored, and respected
                                             him.

                                             And, again, feeling an affinity ...


                                             Al of my poetry .. as a teen, told me of what was
                                             already .. happening.

                                            Happen .. it shall.

                                            Never by happen-chance.

                                            Next - to create my own fairytale 'romance.'

                                            Glad I am outta that past tense .. 'trance,'

                                            Special K - no matter who's 'day'
