Everything she writes has life
all words are there for her,
each creation a little piece
of art that she must capture.

All rave at such great talent
why her life, it must be grand.
To be able to write such things
each poem flowing from her hand.

The sites she much have seen
the life that she must lead,
how wonderful she is
a prodigy indeed.

While inside herself she dies
a slow death, each poem more pain.
More words to fulfill a dream
hopelessy failing again.

No one understands
for each word she pays a price,
another piece of life
another feeling cut and sliced.

Inside she feels nothing
it all comes out in prose.
It's all that she has left,
sadly it's all she knows.

WhiteRose

I said so softly
twas lost amid.
A whisper gone
thought now dim.

the worst things in life bring out some f the best poetry.
whoever this is about, i know her pain.
i think many in here do.

wonderful write. the rhythm was fantastic. never broke your stride.

it's our struggle for identity that leaves us all unknown

WhiteRose,
I used to feel like this.
You either end up gettin' over it,
or it kills you.

Dear Mike, It is within my nature to simply "get over it".  I hate the blues, it is a waste of time. So I spill it out, and continue on.  Thanks for the replies everyone.
