Replying to a comment on:
Why am I here? (Free verse) by harrytuttle
Why am I here?
I am here because I didn't take action.
I am here because I let the sunny days pass me by,
And didn't run, laughing, from the building,
And sat, instead, in a sterile, climate-controlled room,
Staring, stupidly, at a glowing monitor, too much,
Instead of jumping up, rolling, tumbling,
Down a grass covered slope
In an open meadow
Under a perfect blue sky dotted with fluffy white clouds,
Not enough.
That's why I am here.
