Here is a little poem that i just spouted off a few mintues ago.  It pretty much says it all.  Do read and try to enjoy.


the pain is so intense
like nothing i've felt
not knowing how to deal
i sit here wishing still
that i hadn't a heart so fragile
pleading that i knew how
to show you the truth
only knowing that it's missing
it swells up from within
i'm afraid of what it is
even though i must begin
i wish to tell you secrets
reveal things yet untold
my heart bears wittness
to lives that are broke
i can't make this easy
it won't go away
trying to ignore it
i've only gone insane
please give me a moment
just a second of your time
I'd like to tell you once
about this feeling of mine
i know it's abtruse
I realize you don't care
and i don't know how to say it
could you please just see
that there's more than this
look deeper and try to find me

Great job!!! I know how frustrating it is to ask that someone really understand our inner feelings.  But in the end, even if they say they do, other people will never really realize or understand what we feel inside.

This is fantastic! It's nice to read your poetry again, I don't think I've seen much from you in a while. Thought provoking words!
