Array ( [sid] => 61530 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => I Am Meant To Do Something [time] => 2004-08-26 23:46:43 [hometext] => I kinda stopped writing with this one... I've been a couple of weeks now... searching for the right words... as with the artist in me... I am satisfied and yet I am not... u be the judge... comments appreciated... [bodytext] => Here I sit... alone again...
With thoughts of you running through my head...
Staring at your photograph... in front of me...
Wondering to myself...

Have I done or said something to anger you?
Have I opened mouth... one too many times and inserted foot?
Have I made you change your mind about me in any way?
Have I driven a wedge deep in our relationship to stay?
Have I broken the trust that lies between us and not just stretched it?

The answers to these questions and more... are important for me to know...
Because... there's never enough time to say... all I want to say...
There's never enough words to say... all I need to say...
For this moment is suspended forever in time...
Daring to dance in the air of our minds
Where each passing thought... has come to take it's flight...

For all of my life....
For all of my days...
In the midst of all of life's crazy struggles along the way...
As my life ripples out to touch other's lives...
I don't mean to sound conceited or anything...
But God has revealed to me... something...
Maybe not the greatest of anything...
Something special to me...
I just know... deep down in my heart
I am meant to do something... with my life...
Not just live... breath and die

There has been many a day... many a time...
When my Heavenly Father could have called me to my home on high...
But... you see... He hasn't yet...
No... He hasn't yet...
'Cause I know my time on earth isn't through...
He still has something left for me to do...
I am meant to do something...

If only just to be a wife or a mother...
If only just to be an artist or a writer...
If only just to tenderly reach out to those... I love...
Just to show them I care...
By caressing the tender love we share
Or by lending them a helping hand...
Maybe... I am fulfilling God's ultimate plan...
I am meant to do something...

Maybe God has just one purpose for my life
Just to hold you close and tight
In my dreams and my heart each night and day
And to pray for you... always... along life's way
'Cause... you mean more to me... than life itself
More to me... than any one person ever could or ever should
I don't know why this is... exactly...
But when it comes right down to it...
I would... trust with my life...
Would you trust me with yours?
Because ultimately... in the end...
If I had to...
I would give up my life to save yours...

God only knows... what I am meant to do in this life...
I just know... deep down inside...
I am meant to do something... [comments] => 4 [counter] => 145 [topic] => 21 [informant] => kidpoet_213 [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 0 [associated] => [topicname] => Lifepoems )

I think your a wonderful writer and yes you are meant to do something. You'll figure it out, I just know it.

I liked your poem immensely.
