I'm dying on the inside I bleed from within. All my emotions are churned by the wind. I don't know what I feel all I see is darkness I feel pain, I feel heart ache and I don't feel at all. A Queen within a castle, locked up from the world. Rarely letting visitors from outside the walls. At night, the Queen cries out with anguish. But only walls listen. She had a King, but she felt he was wrong. She let him go, and now he's gone. She cries out at night, calling his name but only walls listen to her pain. A Queen with stubborn pride, is what she is putting this upon herself. "Walls, my only friends, listen to me now as I say these words to you.." she said.. " Happy heart, once had I, but now a happy heart is no more. A painful and stubborn pride have I. I apologize, my King!!!" The King never heard her that night, only walls listened. I cry out. But no one hears. |

Deeply painful work this is. This is all too often true, for many of us have only the walls to hear of our pain. Exellent work! *Krista Knutson* As soon as man does not take his existence for granted, but beholds it as something unfathomably mysterious, thought begins. ~*Albert Schweitzer*~ |

man, that is a very well written poem, and too often true.... Heh, I find I sometimes that I have just the opisite problem, my friends seem to need someone to listen, but they wont talk, I wait and wait, but never the lips do crack. "Sa souvraya niende missian ye." I am lost in my own mind. |
