POETRY: "Sammy" By Cheryl A. Baldwin

You've written them down, but your
thoughts haven't left your heart yet.
So shy, so shy
Dont cry
Just let go Sammy.

I see you frown through your smile
I have to be tough, rough
You've been there for a while.
Spaced out in your own zone
Left in this definitive state. you've
sewn.
For yourself
Through life's quilt of problems.
Left to figure out what's best.
No time to rest cuz its their lives in
your hands.
Walking through Your mind alone,
grab my hand and hold
tight
You wont be on your own
We are here.

So shy, so shy
Dont cry.
Just let go Sammy.

And my luck wont last, cuz it's
Remembering the past.

Possibilities of what hasn't been
said
I am angry, I am scared.

Weaving through your life,
You, are the thread.
Beauty on the inside and out.
Power is what's ahead.
Strength is what's in your future, in
your body, in your head.

So shy, so shy
Dont cry.
Just let go Sammy.
But I'm not the one to preach
Be the guidance that you seek.

Your mind can't illustrate your words, your heart cant weep
So you must speak.



Poetry as my way to freedom
