Reality

Who do I think I am
anyway?
Dare I have an idea
with a tiny voice!
Not good enough,
bad idea!
Who gives me
the right to think,
concern myself
with others?
Sorry,
back to my shelter,
protection
from my pain.
I stupidly
walk in these doors
to have them
slammed in my face.
No more risks,
no more kindness,
reality hurts too much!


Sorry all, those that wanted a Form Forum
it won't be happening, too many against it
is what I hear. I really don't know why
I even tried cause I knew deep down
it wouldn't happen and I would feel hurt.
Anyway, I apologize for getting anyones
hopes up, for it won't be happening.  :..(

Dearest Dreamer
Don't be sad
You're disappointed I know
But life's like that

No form forum
But the passions still rule
For one fine day
Your dream'll come true

I might not understand
What's a haiku (sorrie i really don't)
But I can feel
What it means to many of you

Rest assured
The others will see
What you have tried to do
And results are not everything

Here's my comfort, and my shoulder to cry on. Pull yourself together... and treat me to more of your poems...I'll like to understand what kind of poems are considered haikus...and I'll love know more about it!


love,michelle

This is a great piece.  I feel your pain as I read.  If there's anything I can do let me see.  I'll do what I can to help you.

Midnightblues: Thank you, your poem is so sweet, I appreciate your kindness. I don't understand Haiku's or any of them either, all I know is there are some who enjoy them. I was just trying to get them a special place.

Kevin: Thank you for your compliment, and a bigger thank you for your help

Dear friend; You get a capital "E" for effort. Don't give up hope, dreams have a funny way of happening when you least expect it. Love, Ellie

Summers haunting melody
that awakens
the butterflies,
calling them to join
the dance
in their silent song
of praise to God.

Thanks for trying, Gloria! I'm sure it was appreciated by those who wanted a separate forum. But please don't feel hurt because it's not happening. Maybe it will sometime in the future.

Gloria,
  I don't have a problem posting Haikus or Tankas in other forums, Thanks for going to bat for us though! I for one appreciate it, and that is my reality! Nice poem!

LD,

No more risks,
no more kindness,
reality hurts too much!

Oh i know this feeling but there are times when we risk and we recieve just rewards and it makes all the pain worth while. thanks for sharing this wonderfully written poem.

Take care and if you ever want to talk...

Good poem about reality. It can really sometimes be that way. Believe me, I know.
