I'm lying in bed
flooded with thoughts
spinning in my head
I just want to sleep
How long will this last?
Starting to weep
haunted by the past
What can I do?
There's nowhere to hide
So I lay here and wait
fo the storm to subside

Waiting will not work
facing a fear i think is brave

cool poem a little on the short side

------------------
Pride of place in the human race goes to one without a trace,
of subtlety style ego or grace for this position, I wish to say, i would be proud as i am greater than any other face in the crowd

I've been lying in that same bed for a long time...Could truly feel the emptiness of this one.

I must echo michael on this one...i can sense the loneliness and the longing for someone that is not there...sad...but good

Walter Poe - Thnk you. You are right facing your fears brave indeed. But this was more about to many painful questions that have't and may never be answered.
Micheal and starboards- Thank you also. It is a lonely state to be in.

You may be lying in bed haunted about the past...

Thank you JennyLee. I do suppose we have all been there at one time or another. I do have hope that it all will one day come to settle.

You must arise my friend. . .
Arise and greet the new dawn. . .
For in that new day, your love is there


Wonderful. . .

Can I ever relate to this! I always say, sometimes my mind is my own worst enemy. easier said but ya need to just try to take yourself to a peaceful place when this happens. To be honest though, it doesn't always work. I really love your work danni.

Thank you Sven.
I hope you are right
but until the dawn
of that new day
when love is found
I will remain
a patron of the night.

Lostboy, my heart is my worst enemy. It is what brought me to this world of hurt and disappointment. Thank you for the wonderful compliment and words of wisdom. I have also tried that method. Often to no avail.
