sometimes



sometimes when i'm with you i feel at home.
sometimes when i'm with you i feel alone.
sometimes...
sometimes when i'm with you i feel all at one.

sometimes you bring me joy,
sometimes you bring me sadness.
sometimes when i'm next to you i feel like a toy,
sometimes when i'm next to you i feel happiness.

sometimes when we're alone i feel like hiding from you,
sometimes when we're alone the only place i want to be is anywhere- with you.
sometimes i feel like fading away,
sometimes i feel like you want me to stay.

sometimes i wanna cry,
sometimes i wanna laugh.
sometimes i'm happy you're mine,
it's always sometimes,
and never always.

sometimes i feel like you're my problem,
and sometimes i feel like i'm right about that one.
it's always sometimes,
and never always that i think you're the one
for me.

    A very innovative poem about life in general.
    Sometime will get us somewhere but to get there we must work full time.
    Part time is not recommended as life is a full time journey !
    But sometime is better than no time !
