Because the scars do not show And I don't tell you all I know Because I'm good at pack and stow The pain remains unspoken Because my silence seems consent And I don't sing a loud lament My troubles seethe but then foment When promises are broken Because I'm grievous when with you And the hurt you put me through Because my heart is pure and true The pain remains unspoken Because I say nothing in word For when I speak; you've never heard Because I'm trapped, just like a bird I'll accept any small token Because I'm silent as a lamb Would hurt myself to save your plan Because that's me, the way I am The pain remains unspoken But I can't live this way, too long I can't be ever mute and strong Maybe you'll have to move along When I at last have woken. Those of us who refuse to risk and grow get swallowed up by life. Patty Hansen. [This message has been edited by Kethry (edited 03-24-2001).] |

The great pains of life often remain as such, unspoken and maddening. Spreading insanity, one post at a time |

Oh hon, I hate to see the ongoing trials you have to bear at present, all I can say is *love and hugs* and you can call or email whenever you need to. You know that! Isis *War produces one thing - Cemetaries. And in cemetaries there are no enemies!* |

Oh Girl~  I know the road seems long and the darkness never ending, but hold on tight to your hopes and wants. One small step daily is all you need, and we all know you can do it. Hugs to you, Mags No person is worth your tears, and the only one that is ...... will never make you cry |

All I know is that pain is a message to us and it needs to be expressed and acted upon...James |

Thanks everyone, James if I acted upon and expressed my pain in the way that I cope best, I'd be banned from these fine blue pages.  Kethry Those of us who refuse to risk and grow get swallowed up by life. Patty Hansen. |

I truly believe that this is one of the best poems I have ever read. It makes me think so much about how things are for me right now and the way you describe the treatment of yourself by yourself is simply stunning. Thank you so much for the great poem. I hope to read some more of your works if they are of a quality such as this. AWood0813 |

I've lived in your words for some time now and so I not only understand, but I have the hope that tomorrow will be a better day. You express your feelings well and that is the first step to healing. Always listen to your heart.. KateBlessings and hugs Genuine poetry can communicate before it is understood. |

Why is it so hard to talk about this? (Rhetorical question) I haven't the answer. But it does make for good poetry. I like this Kethry. Well done, girl. Kraw' /:-}== |
