hello.. this will probably confuse u a little, hehe, as to what it is actually talking about, but, I'm not letting on, no clues, I want your own interpretations. *_^ hehe Hide And Seek Words In my mind, A thousand things I have to say. In my heart, A thousand things I feel. In my mind, Words elude me, Playing little games, They let me know they’re there, But stay hidden from My searching, probing thoughts. I explain to myself, But not in words; There are no friends inside my mind; All play torturing, dreary games. Hide and seek, Now come out, When I don’t need them anymore. They tease me inside, Like I am teased outside, When a word decides to hide from me, Tickling my consciousness. Why? I ask them. Why are you so cruel?! But they don’t answer; They’re hiding again; As I try to write them down. |

Yu Lan, Good poem, and yes you did confuse me. Though I beleive this poem describes the cruelty of people and how it affects our minds and souls. |

Thank u lonelypoet & swamp.. hehe, yeah, thought it would confuse u a wee bit.. *_^ yeah, u r half right there lonelypoet.. hehe.. and swamp is another half right (I wont say the other half.. 'coz there are many 'halves' to a poem. lol) Mmm, not so much for a poem, but just in everyday life, something that my family don't understand.. when i struggle to find a word in normal speech.. so, of course, as u would, they laugh.. as does everyone else.. and it kinda does have a negative effect on a person.. as I can never really explain things 2 ppl, without having to substitute a word I wanted, for one I didn't want, and STILL not be understood, and then have it rammed down your throat, unknowingly, by your friends and family.. kinda frustrating.. ^_^ Anywayzz.. thanx both of ya, (woops, hehe, should have left the explanation 'til a few more had given opinions, huh? *_^) -Lynne |

Hmm, yeap, never get deterred at explaining things to people Lynne. There is nothing to prevent you from trying again as long as you have the courage to do it. Sometimes the absence of courage is what I find in you, Lynne. There is nothing wrong with people laughing at you, 'cause not all the people think the same as you do, and it happens to be your family. If it really isn't gonna work, talk to someone else, eh that's what I am here for too. But anyway, it's not a bad poem from you, I noticed that you like to use the word 'elude' in your writing, haha. (Um, that's a friendly laugh-ish smile, thank you) Sorrow is the starting point of happiness. Without sorrow, a man can never realize the true meaning of happiness. Jõmes |
