Questions
Questions By Karen CARRINGTON~ I may be young but have a soul of old. Many times that’s been told. The pressures that exist within my realm. My head feels like it’s gonna explode. The constant struggle, the hustle and bustle. Only but a baby, yet have to survive. I made this bed and now I must lie. It may sound sad but Lord knows it’s true. Wasn’t easy for me may be even harder for you. The few that are good may be an insight to you. I’ve learned from those of old. That’s the insight let it be told. Life is no joke, although at times we choose to play. But NEVER no EVER did I think it be this way. What are the Answers to the questions in my mind. Do they even exist, or does it all take time.

Search Of The Soul
Search of the Soul By ~Karen Carrington~ You know life just passes by. Constantly I stop and ask myself why. “Why” is the question that swims within my soul. Why am I so deep? Caught up in gaining control. Control of my life. Control of me. I sit and I ponder on my ever sought goals. What are the reasons of why I’m not yet in control? I need to search I need to find. Why it is I’m unable to see. The thoughts on why I cannot be....Totally satisfied with what you’ve given me. Is it unhappiness, is it relief? The answers to my questions are only in grief. Denial to the fact I’m not believing in me. Blind to the fact that I’m unable to see. What it is everyone else sees. So rare, so unique. So passionate, yet so incomplete. Until I believe, that I am what I be. I fail to realize that it is what I see. I wanna stop allowing the negative that brings me down. I want to stop letting thoughts make my life go round. It’s not about “them” it’s all about me. Feeling so totally overwhelmed with all that’s going on. To be so young, yet be so strong.
