Stop trying so hard It'll get you nowhere Nowhere so fast It'll make you spin My head's in a daze From people coming and people going in and out of my life It makes so little Sense to even try To belong, to fit in The society that shuns I've been waiting for So long, it seems like Years to this date And nothing's been right I'll take it a little at A time, accepting and rejecting things passed in my direction, in my sight I'll put a little Faith into people i've Longed to trust, people I've longed to be near I'll keep my cool And stay away, keep my Distance from them Until the signs are clear I'd like to feel safe I'd like to feel real But when these days go By, i lose control Take a little time in Realizing just what you Have, each laugh, each Smile, each note of blue Don't push it, you might Just stumble, forget what You've learned, and learn Everything that you can Playing by the rules Won't always get you what you want, break them... And see where it takes you "It's my heart that pounds beneath my flesh it's my mouth that pushes out this breath..."-FTE [This message has been edited by Nights (edited 02-17-2000).] |

Nights, I always enjoy reading your work because it is so passionate. I think maybe you should take your own advice in the last stanzas. If you let yourself get close to someone, even if you're not sure, it may turn out alright. Just a thought. Wonderful work.

This was wonderful. I apluad you on this wonderful writing. It is one of the the most thought prevoking poems I think you have written. Great Job. "WRITING IS EASY. ALL YOU DO IS STARE AT A BLANK SHEET OF PAPER UNTIL DROPS OF BLOOD FORM ON YOUR FOREHEAD." Gene Fowler |

Thankx for the replies. It's been a little weird lately in school and with friends and just with life. But writing always helps. Thankx again "It's my heart that pounds beneath my flesh it's my mouth that pushes out this breath..."-FTE |
