i

by Michele Schottelkorb

i search for the words to tell you how i feel
i search for the thoughts that seem so unreal
i pray to the gods that i might see the light
i pray to myself to hold you tonight
i scream in the woods colours galore
i scream as i finish slamming the door
i cry in the dark, do you cry there too?
i cry for myself and i cry for you
i hit when i feel i'm backed in the corner
i hit when i think my life is a goner
i hold when i'm feeling especially glad
i hold when i know that you feel so sad
i want when i know that it's a tough road ahead
i want when it's hard to get myself out of bed
i kiss when my baby runs through the door
i kiss and it leaves me wishing for more
i sting if you try and get in my way
i sting if perchance i've had a bad day
i cherish you when i know that i've had enough
i cherish the good times and rough
i think when i have to, give when i can
i think this poem, describes who i am

Good exercise in evolving repetition and rhyme! Does indeed nicely descibe who you are.

i search for words to say that will express just how sincere a poet you are.
