Land Of The Diminishing Dreams

The fury pours out,
Like a stream to the ocean.
Uncontrolable anger.
Hate.
I turn my back on the world,
For the world has turned it's back on me.
It soars like an eagle,
Spreading it's evil.
Taking the Beauty,
Stealing the sun.
Covering our world,
With dark, black,
Unhappy clouds.
Rage.
No more smiles,
No more tears.
What have we brought,
Upon ourselves?
The love,
Who took it from us?
Our dreams,
What have they become?
Sweet innocence.
How did it disappear?
We spend our days in,
Darkness.
The end,
To social life.
No more laughs,
No more conversations.
Fear.
Do we have,
A Future?

Night_Mist.. Thank you for your reply on my poem.. but quite honestly I am not that unhappy. I have wonderful parents that take care of me until I am 18 and then maybe me and my mom can have contact. If she's straightened her life out. You seem to be filled with lots of hurt and pain. And believe me I have had my share of counseling because I have gone thru the same thing. But in all honesty... it's more fun to be happy and make the best of things while you still have them. I don't have a relationship with my mom and I now wish that I could have had one when I was able to live with her and us not fight. But I have thrown that chance away and I do regret it. I don't know the seriousness of your family problems. But I am here to listen any time you need anyone to talk to. Sometimes it helps. Plus, I kinda know where your coming from. Feel Free to email me anytime... [email protected] And your poem was really beautiful. Keep up the writing.. believe me.. it helps.. sorry about the book! MysticalAngel

Welcome to Passions.

Everything you say is true, except the part where you ask "Do we have a future". We DO have a future, my friend. That is the only hope we have, to create a better world in the future. But it starts with you. Good writing.

Hey Night Mist!!
Welcome to Passions. First of all I love your name.
Your poem is what everyone feels when the world has turned it's back on them...but you put it very well with so much emotion that really relates to how I feel(most of the time).
And the last line...good question that I sometimes think ot myself "Do i have a future?" The future is like this deep hazy fog, gardually clearing away with every day that passes, but never leaving.

Sorry for rambling!!Great poem!!Keep writing!

"Controlling my feelings for too long....
And forcing our darkest souls to unfold...
And pushing us into self-destruction...."

Land of The Diminishing Dreams a accurate title indeed...It does often seems that life is full of nothing more than broken hearts and shattered dreams. Seeming is not being, however. There is no point to live your life in the shadows of grief, life has so much to offer. Damnit, life is yours, live it your way.
