       From light
          Of
        Day to
     Gloom of night
      This heart
      Of mine has
       To fight

      To say alive
      So i strive
To lock the Demons outside

To teach lessons that
   Need to be taught
         And
Fight the fights that
        Need
    To be fought.


I'm a dying romantic and when i can no longer write i can no longer live -Jeremiah Johnson-

Another excellent poem from you. Sums up life in a nutshell!

Jeremiah....I agree with SpitFire...I hope you are keeping all of these and filing them away for a published book someday.  I love your youthful insight into life and it's foibles.  Hardrock

Well spoken Jeremiah, how I wish sometimes I could sum things up in few words and have them speak volumes, Very well done!!

Hey Jeremiah, I'm registered now, but can't post anything, I'm not allowed. Your poetry is insightful. Lovin' it. I want to read some of that new "happy" stuff you said you've started to write now. I bet it's beautiful.

A little late getting in here and not much left to say beyond all the comments made so far, except to agree.  Great job.
