allergic to life

i think I'm allergic to life
every time i live it,
i break out in a horrible rash
so might i sit here at home
and alone, i wont have to try.

but, if i find I'm allergic to myself
i bet that rash would be huge,
guess i'll buy a strong creme
and get myself out into the stream of life.

Life is like the moon, it has a light side and a dark side, otherwise life will be as dull as we are without our imaginations, Carol! Like buy a strong creme and get yourself out into the stream of life.Nice and well worded poem, Carol.

No it's best to get out and cure the allergy. Your poems are enough to get rid of my allergies.

I've known other who seemed allergic to me but I got past that self-judgement phase long ago and learned to love me for what I have to offer. Your friend in words, Pete
