Woken up to that harsh reality
the thought to a crucified life
of a non exsistent life-style
a non exsistent harted
towards all who have
lived
all who have loved
Woken up to that pitiful
desire to kill.....
each one passing by
for being all the sane
To afflict harm on those
whom loved to love me
Excruciating Hell..
A Plague of friends
no one there
they turned away..
cautious to hand
whats left of the heart
Shattered into a million pieces
Woken up to that Silencing noise of
Moiety--created equal,
society thinks...
Tranquil, no disturbances
of those eyes that are ment to see all
that is one.
I ronic, it is, those who dis-liked you most
are those who turn to you for only an
agitated minute..
Woken up  to that
Laughter that fills these lungs of
satire
Serene and troubled I am
Tormented at those who know
me best

BirdeeB,
Take heart, even though life is full of ups and downs, there are many people who will listen and lend a helping hand.

Respond to my call and let the waves of my heart fill your life with the wonders of love
(Daniel J D)

Birdee, a great grasp of subject. Also, I don't mean this to sound cheesey, but I think you might like a few tracks on Natalie Merchant's Ophelia CD: Break Your Heart, and Life is Sweet. They are an almost perfect contrast to this poem, and delve out fantastic melodies. You might want to investigate them...
