Others fail to understand,
I am an unknown,
No more can I believe,
No more can I stand to be alone.

I'm merely a shooting star,
Admired but not understood,
Do you dare to really look inside?
See what is under my hood?

I doubt so,
For it is where sane men dare to tread,
I cannot be held responsible,
One look and you may be dead.

Ticking time bomb,
Set to implode,
Perhaps that'll ease the burden,
Ease the eternal load.

It is all a fantasy,
Cruel realities too much to bear,
Lord I pray take my soul right now,
For it hurts too much too care.

Isis,
     just when you think that no one understands you. . . someone appears out of the mist. . .

"For it is where sane men dare to tread"

How about INsane men?

Excellent words, my friend. . .

wow isis, this is powerful girl...
very deep and laced with dark edges...
well written.. very well!!
take care,
jm

 Well the sun sets gently on your shoulders
And it makes me want to touch you there.
And the light in your eyes makes me feel
Like there's something much better out there
Something kind...
And I know someday I might be looking around
Trying to find some purpose
Well purpose it can't be that hard to find
As long as I've got the wind...
The wind and your love to carry me.

Great Work Isis,

"Others fail to understand,
I am an unknown,
No more can I believe,
No more can I stand to be alone."


Very Powerful stanza.


This has to be one of your best, I am going to print it.  Take care

Daniel



 The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, not the kindly smile, not the joy of companionship; it is the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when he discovers that someone believes in him and is willing to trust him with his friendship."

--Ralph Waldo Emerson

Isis~
What an emotional piece, felt the pain deep inside.

Sometimes we feel like noone understands, when we are in need
They don't listen, because it's off us that  they do feed

We are their bumper and never the other way round
We are the fox and they're always the hound

Oneday we'll just give in, won't take it anymore
And it won't be to us, their hearts that they do pour

This may not relate to your poem, but I thought you could appreciate it.
Tracie~

Extraordinary as usaul Isis !!
It was altogether as lovely as the bitter facts. You surely travelled through the trentches of life and love beautifully.
All I can say is ,
" You somehow or the other pull my words from my mouth to sketch them even more beautifully than I could have ."
Keep up the spirit Isis !!
Take Care,

LUV YA

Depth of feeling is in this one for sure.
Nice writing. (hope it's just writing and not real feelings)
