I am human.


My pain is scary,
My body hairy
My eyes are teary,
My mind weary
My dreams are tall,
My time small
What is wrong with me?
I am human.

  3. As someone else noted, the line “My dreams are tall, my time is small” is an especially good line. It’s a wonderful ‘take-away’ line from this poem that will stay with you.

    My spirit ever willing
    My voice trilling,
    My heart welling.
    With hope alive,

    I am human.

  11. Wow. Every, single emotion in that poem can be seen directly in the tired eyes of the drawing. Very nice!

  12. A human being. With hopes and dreams, tears to weep and memories to keep. Time eludes us, stretches us, but we hold steadfast. Clinging to a our younger days. Our inner child. Laugh, cry, be free. Be human!
