i posted this originally in the Open Poetry forum....but thought i'd put it in here too because it's about a very emotional, depressing time in my life...it was originally a song in my head, but has for some reason remained a poem...please tell me what you think... slowly before you, my pain in my hands reaching out for comfort, hear me crying as I land i try to breathe the air sticks in my lungs collapsing inside me, the way it always does unravel unravel turn away as i unravel the pieces fall apart and i lose them one by one these nights are my undoing, far from reason, far from sun through grief, one shines so watch me as i glow a room of staring silence... with no where else to go unravel unravel close your eyes as i unravel the crumbling tiny pieces of who i used to be see them drown in expectations for the person who was me i once was strong i once was wise but those who love me close their eyes unravel unravel pull the thread as i unravel [This message has been edited by samantha4 (edited 05-12-2001).] |

the refrain effect works, especially with the twist at the end. depression seems more like implosion to me, but unravelling works to Krawdad |

I agree with Ginners, definately a great song here, this is a very good write, strongly written, powerfully stated. Emotional, moving, great piece all around. Take care. With the word, I am mighty, with the pen I am free.. |
