Do I look as if I'm the way I'll always be?

I'm sitting below my country's banner, looking for
any reason it could matter. Its symbol torn to tatter, divided
till the point of shatter.

But it's okay you know, that's just the way the show will go.
It might be dark but you and I still glow.

You and I matter to each other, that is all that matters to me,
because with you are where I wanna be.

This building over our heads might fall but we still go there after all.
What's the point of building such a big wall, if it doesn't stop the giant hurt that reaches so tall?

That way it stays interesting, just like toy and me mean something. Even without a perfect melody you still matter.

You still matter too much to me....

There is something elusive about this poem that intrigues me even more than if it was all laid out. The sentiments ring true, your words flow from one line to the next, and your title really sums up where your heart lays. Well done.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
