I Cry 3/17/2011 5:53:19 AM
A letting go. . .
I was so excited about AD offering a way for me to publish my books. I uploaded two of them and sent out hundreds of emails to announce their availability. . .just to hit the wall of malfunctioning servers that prevent anyone from ordering my books, during the time when my emails are being received. I don't blame AD. These things happen. Its nobody's fault and is tough on them also, I'm sure. But I am so tired of the walls and bars and obstacles that clutter my path that I just don't think I can handle anymore. This is only the most recent wall in a long chain of too many at a time when I was already way too worn out and desperate for a break.
I work. I do. My hardest, I try.
But my pen and hands
Keep getting tied.
For years and years
I've persevered
And I'm still stuck
Between there and here.
I don't know how
To keep finding strength
To climb growing walls,
That have such length.
I'm too worn out,
Been wrung to dry.
Should I let go
And let it die?
