Came Out Today
17 June, 2004
Author: Ben Franklin
I took a walk in the park today,
the sun was blazing,
i saw a rose amongst some weeds,
im glad i came out today,
the trees were blowing from the much needed wind,
im glad i came out today,
it felt like the world had ended and i was the only one left,
it was so peacefull,
im glad i came out today,
two men,
maybe late twenties,
beat me up and took my phone,
this is why i havent been out in months.

Meri (64.12.117.71) -- Monday, August 8 2011, 08:33 pm When you told me about this. Some folks are just flat out mean. I know you probably won't forget the incident, but I'm hoping you've healed some since then. Emotional and powerful poem Ben. |
Ben Alan franklin (172.24.37.35) -- Monday, August 15 2011, 12:17 am Hey miss m, yeah this was a few years back, and at the time I was very bitter and angry, more so angry with myself that I just let it happen, but you have got to forgive and forget! Take care miss m! |
