Lily's WorldsPhotograph that inspired this poem or storySometimes I'm up sometimes I'm down Today I'm sitting under a tree With no one beside me I always wonder is this the way my life is meant to be No one to love, no one to hate, No one to be friends with, I'm all alone in the land of forever With nothing but my thoughts. I don't want to cry, it makes me seem weak I just need someone to love Someone to love me back A family to care I don't know my past, or what the future holds There's only now Today I'm sitting under a tree With no one beside me I always wonder is this the way my life is meant to be I want to know about my mum and dad I want things that I've never had I want a friend to care for me when I'm feeling sad I'm sitting alone under a tree With pictures in my mind of how it's meant to be I see my mums face just like mine I see my dad having a good time I see myself in 10 years behind And back to where I started I'm back under a tree but it's not me It's my mind by a pupil at The Charter School |
