Should've Known Better |

I should've known better, Than to think you'd understand, Should've know better, You'd just hide your head in the sand. Foolishly I kept hoping, That you'd understand my plight, Silently I kept praying, That you'd join me in my fight. Alas I'm deemed unworthy, For understanding or sympathy, I simply don't deserve your time, The time it would take to understand me. For long months now I've been toiling, I never get time to even think of me, No longer the fires are burning, The light within is failing can't you see? I wanted to lean on you, Wanted you to be the strong one, Instead I'm left standing all alone, And slowly I'm coming undone. I should've known better, Than to think you'd stand by my side, I should've known better, I must confide. I must face all this alone, Seems to be my lot, I'll just leave you to your lonely ways, A life filled with unspeakable filth and rot. I'll tell you this...... No eternal reward will forgive us now for wasting the dawn..... ~Isis~ (Goddess - Sovereign of the Spirit) |

Isis~ Good to see you, my friend. Whoa ! Need to slow down, hon. You can't 'do it all' and you can't 'be it all' ! No one can. Take that 'SuperWoman' cape off and ground yourself. (or find an empty phone booth to hide in) ![]() Just do what you can and take a breather for YOU ! *Hugs* and prayers. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

So many shades of angst you've taken and painted a rainbow of gray shadow, but a rainbow nonetheless. Well writter, Isis! Evan |

~Oh Isis,...you've expressed this so well. My heart is heavy to know of your troubles. You have written with talent the mountains you climb each day. Please be well Isis. *Peace. |

Isis- Lovely poem.....But so full of angst! You have a wonderful way with words.... They express your soul beautifully. Be Happy -Wren The thread of destiny Unknown by anyone Unseen by anyone Winds around your heart Moist with tears -Vampire Princess Miyu Theme |

I must face all this alone, Seems to be my lot, I'll just leave you to your lonely ways, A life filled with unspeakable filth and rot. .... Great expression... Isis, It feels good to be back in this chamber... the hall of darkness feels so inviting today... regards, sudhir |

Well dear, this is a miserable situation, isn't it. Poem expresses it perfectly. Take care. Sandra Practice can make anything perfect...even grief can become an art. Merrit Malloy |
