My Puzzle
by Debra Ayis
I feel my life drifting
I know I am slipping
My heart, my soul is ripping
I can feel my blood rippling
I jump off my tree limb
Because now I am tripping
That no one is killing
My life is spinning
And I'm in the middle
It’s like a long riddle
I just can’t wait to solve the puzzle
Yesterday I was facing the muzzle of a gun
But today I see people nuzzle
While they are eating pizza
I don’t know why I am still sizzling
When I can feel the rain of joy drizzling.
