A Small Hope


I have this fear inside
Growing in my heart
It can overwhelm me
In the black of night

I have this anger
Eating away my soul
That has no where to go
Buried down so deep

I have this sorrow
That can overshadow
The light in my life
Making me feel alone

I have helplessness
That I feel every day
It might not be true
The feeling is so strong

I have stifled shame
That I don’t understand
I did nothing wrong
But still it lingers on

I have this worry
That I am not able
To be what he needs
What he is expecting

I have this small hope
To be normal one day
To see the sun shine
To rid all the darkness.

Well, Tara, I really enjoyed your poem but you seem so sad.  I sure hope you find your way through it all.  I've felt alot of those things before.  There is always hope...believe me!

Goodness, Tara!  This was painful to read, my friend.  Any time you need someone to talk with, always know that I'm here to listen and help in any way that I can.  *hugs* to you, sweet friend.

All you need is a tiny speck of hope and your whole life can change.

'I have this small hope
To be normal one day
To see the sun shine
To rid all the darkness'

Respond to my call and let the waves of my heart fill your life with the wonders of love

Tara~

So many times I have felt this, very emotional and powerful....be well and find that peace you seek....


Lauren~


Step through the
barrier of my mind,
enter my soul,
feel my desire,
let my eyes guide you
into the shadows
of my heart
