Sometimes I get so confused,
and not know what to do.
So many jumbled feelings,
not knowing which is true.

Life can be so unkind,
and so unforgiving.
But the world never stops turning,
and people go on living.

Sometimes you lose the power,
to control your mind.
That's when problems arise,
and the world becomes unkind.

Because your thoughts are confused,
and your heart is torn,
That unavoidable question crosses your mind,
why were you ever born?

Sometimes I get so confused,
and not know what to do.
So many jumbled feelings,
not knowing which is true.

But no matter how bad things get,
or how hard to bear.
There's always someone to listen,
Always someone that cares.

I am but a shadow, lost within this world of darkness

I don't know how this one slipped by me. Very good, sorry Ominous.

This was a good way to put feelings into words. Writing always makes me feel better when I am down. If this was about you, I hope it helped you too. If not it is still a great poem. This is the first one I have read of yours, and now It makes me want to read more.

i feel confused much of the time, and i really need someone to turn to. i used to be able to talk to my best friend about everything, but she moved, and we can't always keep in touch.
so here's the question:
is there really someone you can always turn to when things get rough? it doesn't seem that way to me.

angel girl, it may seem that way sometimes, but there's always someone standing in the shadows, that's willing to lend an ear, and a helping hand. The trick is looking. =)
