Dawn approaches..
Here I stand,
With my body scared by the resent battles.
This is my war I fight my worst fear.
I fight once more with myself!!.
Strugle and torment is my comfort in this passing day,
Do I wimper?
No I sit here like the rock I am and deal with it.
So much pain,
Too many scars to show
This is what I face alone,
This is my battle I face in my heart!!.

jytree: this is really good... the imagery is familiar for some reason... i think it's reminiscent of a Donne poem, but i'm not sure... might have been Byron *heh*... anyway, good job... i think the brevity adds to the poem in this sense... it gives it more of a sense of urgency...

sincerely,
jerome the boy with no brain

 A savage place! as holy and enchanted
As e'er beneath a waning moon was haunted
By woman wailing for her demon-lover!

I like it. You said a lot with out getting to wordy and full of context. If you need to talk about those bottled up emotions e-mail me. I like to give advice and sometimes just listen.

Definitely good work, not too wordy, but with so much said.  Keep it up!
