Lady Bug vs. The Weed by ~dreamernreality:icondreamernreality:



I am a lady bug crawling on the ground
I'm crying out but I can't make a sound

You are a weed growing in the grass
As time goes by you've grown so fast

My tears are the water that helps you grow
Why are you so high and make me feel so low

You cover me with darkness so you getall the sunlight
There's no way a ladybug could put up a fight

I'm crawling and crawling trying to  get away
But no matter what you won't get out of my way

I am a lady bug crawling on the ground
I'm crying out but I can't make a sound

You are a weed growing in the grass
But I am NO longer one you can harrass

I wrote this on 12/3/05 as an assignment.

It may not make sense to you, but to me it does.
It may also be pretty simple, or in other words stupid or childish....but i don't care. I understand it and maybe that's all that matters?!!?

And guess what.....I chopped that weed! :)

I think I have some general idea.

And I'm very happy for you.

I like your repitition of the first stanza.
I've always been fond of repitition in poems, how repition can make the same words be seen in another light.

What the dreamers call cynisism the cynic calls realism. Which world do you want to live in?

Omnia mutantur, nihil interit.
Everything changes, but nothing is truly lost.

Somehow this poem (and that quote) makes me think of a dream you once told me about.
The one with you finding your younger self.
