Standing here.. Looking out to sea
Forever I wonder, why, why me
Now I wander...Never here
Tomorrow comes...Without me there.
Coldness creeps into my soul
Eyes betraying that I'm old
Far beyond my time I stand
Heart longing for the distant lands
Wishing upon stars for dreams
Shaking in fear, mouthing silent screams
Nothings wrong, nothings right
Now I'll die with out a fight



 To oppose you is to deny the heart of friendship... To join you is to deny the heart of humanity. I am the earth... the fire... you are the sea and wind. Should we together be god? Or apart be nemesis...

There is definetely pain in this poem. I enjoyed the read.

I understand...I feel I was in the place you describe not too long ago.  Beautiful Imagery and Emotion here!!! Great Work!  I applaud you!!!  ~~Jamie  


 "I keep breaking all the promises
That I keep making to myself
You'd think by now that I'd be over this
Instead I'm feeling sorry for myself
So why does everything seem desperate now?
I should be feeling so alive
But it feels like something's missing
Something's wrong somehow
It feels like something deep inside has died..."

Lovely poem....I can feel the pain therein. It also made me tingle on the first read.

Love and hugs,
