Sometimes
I just
want to feel
alive.

What do you mean?
Of course you’re alive!
I know I know,
but I don’t always feel it.

So many things to do
bills, bills, bills,
all long past due.
I don’t want to believe it.

In life, if you’ve
ever felt rejected,
then you know what it’s like
to be the last one selected.

For some team,
something,
by somebody,
SOMETIMES, I just want to feel alive.

Is that too much to ask?
For once being told, you’ve passed,
or noticed
so I can finally feel important.

Appreciated,
for nothing more than
just being
me.

Of course we’re alive!
But sometimes,
more than
others.

Though, you can’t really
have one
without
the other.

I’ve been told
that good things
come
to those who wait.

So how long
will it take?
For this pie of life
to bake.

Until we’re ready,
at last,
happy,
and filled.

Here’s a secret
sometimes
can be anytime,
don’t you see?

You’re only as
alive as you
choose
to be.
