I hate my life for the mess it's made of me and it's strife. Despair is my song the only tune I know yet it comes out wrong. Casual words bleed a chorus of unconcern that ignores my need. Needing compassion, I am struck by the force of her dispassion. Once in my heart, how she did leave is where this story does start. She told me today for three years she has lied to me in every way. I ask for concern yet each of my efforts she does constantly spurn. Again today I discovered why men are violent to women, the reason is uncovered. They try to provoke such a reaction then quietly smile at the heart they broke. All women are the same is what I don't want to believe, feeling so is my shame. Is someone there for me, a Lady who will soothe my Beast and not ignore my sanity? ©1999 DreamEvil ------------------ Shall I indulge in flights of fancy hampered by clipped wings?

Wow, I read this once, and had to read it again...such really deep emotions in this piece. All women are not the same...unfortunately, you got a taste of the BAD kind...the kind that only think of themselves. Humans hurt eachother for only one reason...selfishness - in some form or another. Keep looking up and you will find that someone who will love you truly... Great work! ------------------ - poet FemmeFatale "The strongest man in the world is he who stands most alone..." Henrik Ibsen (1826-1906) Norwegian dramatist lyric poet |

I also had to read this more than once, Dream. So much raw emotion...yes, you've seen the bad kind of women...I despise them too, as most of the halfway good women do. We aren't all like this. Excellent work, my friend, as always. ------------------ *Krista Knutson* "Your kiss upon my face feels like a brush with grace, baby thats all it takes to take me higher..." SHeDaisy |

This piece sits badly with me. But it's good work. ------------------ "Glory remains unaware of my neglected dwelling where alone I sing my tearful song which has charms only for me." -Charles Brugnot |

Oh dear, hurt is a universal thing. We women can be such cows, sometimes. The flip side to be the only species that can think and create beyond survivalist instinct is our awful capacity to hurt others. But of course - we can love too! Don't give up. Hey - you write great poetry, that's got to be a comfort right? |

I'm sorry your hurting in such a way, The right one will come along some day. Not all woman are the same...some may hurt intentionally, but they say we hurt the ones closest to us. It only hurts worse cause we feel so deep to the ones we love.. Hang in there Dream! Keep chaneling through your words! |

Thank you, everyone for the words of encouragement, but my past and present experiences with women make what you say very hard to believe. With friends and more like you, I will always try to keep an open mind. |

I think you should become a monk. Live in a monastery that prohibits talking and will not allow you to have writing materials! (Do you feel better with *that* as an alternative?) If I had a quarter for every time I felt this way about men, I'd be wealthy! We take from life what we put into it! Smile and move on! |

Here's the smile. I have moved on, just every once in awhile, the past haunts me. |

You have to have a little faith...I'm not sure it's about either women or men but more to do with how each of us actually feel and show our care...if our attitudes on that don't fit, chances are, the couple in the relationship won't either...but sometimes we have to leave in order to know what we lost or gained...depending on your point of view.. But take heart, there are other's whose future haunts them, rather than their past....well, that all sounds depressing and it wasn't meant to be at all...
