Analysis of Sometimes

Li 2005 (Jharkhand)



I sometimes don't
understand what I feel.
Maybe I am broken
perhaps it's time to heal.

Sometimes I feel like people's behavior,
It sems bad towards me.
But sometimes myself
behaving bad to them, I see.

Sometimes I am blessed
to live a life like this.
Sometimes in this life I feel
like a waterless fish.

Sometimes I am just ignoring
things, in life, which do not fit.
But sometimes the reasons for not getting them,
 in my mind, they hit.

I don't know if I am worthy or
if I can even do my part.
Sometimes I am broken,
sometimes I feel happiness in my heart.

About this poem

It's about how human feelings change time to time and we confuse our selves in the process to understand them each time.
