I write About humanity I fight Injustice that I see My right To be just who I be My plight A love that's not for me Guilty A victim of my crime Sentenced Go down for one last time Locked up Behind these bars of hate Save me I prey it's not too late Useless Are thoughts that I explain Nothing Is what I have to gain Tortured By all this constant pain Slowly I drive myself insane Taunted By dreams I have inside Feels like My soul has all but died No one Around me now will be My friends Have all abandoned me Question How come she did not see See what The man that lives in me Wonder Just why it is I cry Because Without her love I die Who cares About the things I've done Draw stares That come from everyone Lonely This bed that I now lie Grows cold As all the nights go by Thrust deep In darkness and despair Thoughts creep Of who will really care So steep This mountain that I climb With that I choose to end this rhyme G. A. Webb < !signature--> Regret not that which you have done, Rather that which you haven't [This message has been edited by G. A. Webb (edited 02-10-2000).] |

I know, I know, I should have put this in dark passions, but I had the urge to put it here, sorry. Don't worry, I not that depressed. This is just what came to mind. I hope you like it. |

I most certainly like it...and especially the rhythm you've employed. Really expressive! Claire |

Count me in ! I like it too. It's my favorite shade of blue ~Marge~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

Wow, thanks! I didn't think that anybody would like this being posted here because it's kind of a dark poem. But I'm glad to know that you did. Thank you Balladeer, Meadowmuse and Marge for your comments. They mean a lot to me. G Regret not that which you have done, Rather that which you haven't |
