Audrey Calderone: Poetry Collection




Hop of Faith


there drifts away my life


feeling like a stabbing knife


I don't know where i go


and it hurts ever so


i sit here thinking


as my mind continues leaping


no one sees what's going on


so sometimes i think I'm already gone


and some friends left


floating away on a small raft


while some grew closer


but some are on their own roller coaster


and no one can blame them at all


for life is not always that tall


and one day we will be nothing


will we even ever be a something?


life is short, not enough time


sometimes it feels like a sour lime


and we don't know who's next to die


so we need to take this chance to fly


we are really all one


and we might not all be done


but some people are sitting there


not even knowing where


and no one sees how much they are hurting


so they all just sit there sorting


and what are they really sorting?


they say their life but do they even know?


and i know how it hurts ever so


so lets all just hold on to at least one dream


we can hold it tight with even one small seam


because we can all be strong


even if it feels really wrong


I'm still figuring out the meaning of life


but somehow that feels okay
