"Sometimes."

A poem written by Lua Harmsen on June 8, 2014

"Sometimes."

Sometimes I breath fire

Sometimes I'm ice cold

Sometimes I'm shy and timid

Sometimes I'm brave and bold

Sometimes my eyes are open

Sometimes they are closed

The lesson to be learned is to trust the ebb and flow

Sometimes I hate myself

But sometimes I'm so damn funny

Sometimes I feel gorgeous

And sometimes I think I'm ugly

Sometimes I know My power

And sometimes i need a hand

There is nothing wrong with being exactly who I am

Sometimes i see in technicolor

Sometimes the world is dark and gray

They greatest ability you have is to allow yourself to change

Sometimes i can remember

And sometimes i forget

That there's much more left to learn I'm not done here yet

Sometimes I am grateful

Sometimes I think I don't have enough

Sometimes I'm soft and gentle

Sometimes I am too rough

There's nothing to be feared

If you are sure and certain 

That sometimes you can open the window

And sometimes you can close the curtains...
