I am tired
tired of the small
attempts of pain
that attack me
that make vengence
on my heart
my soul
my mind.
Tired of
hoping that
one day will
be mine
only to have
one turn
to dust.
Tired of
bleeding my
souls content
for gods amusement
or does his grace
have nothing better.
Tired of
thinking that
by letting others
into my words
I could affect
them somehow, some way.
Tired of
being trapped
by my heart
that understands
that feels it's worth
that would collapse
in your arms given
the chance.

=========================
rest my gentle poet...
your words  Do effect and change people,
and heal and touch..
and as for your heart...
its just resting...
its not easy being unselfish and poetic  
love this one...(of course) *smile*
take care

I just found this one on one of the back pages.  This reminds me of a conversation I was having with a friend of mine in the early hours of last Sunday morning. It was unfortinutly interupted because I had to leave to go on my trip. On the bus to get here I was rethinking that conversation and trying to write something that would reflect it.  As always, you have so easily captured the emotions and words I wanted to share with my friend.   Thank you.....
