I Know That I Must Go On:


I know that I must go on.
What else can I do?
Beyond past thoughts of her.
It was all that was true.

I know that I must go on.
Is there another way?
Musing over memories.
I took it day by day.

I know that I must go on.
How long will it take?
Trying to but live my life,
And see what I make.

I know that I must go on.
Could I ever see?
To realize what truly is,
And to fully be.

I know that I must go on.
Is it really fair?
That I wither in hell
Dying in a lions lair.

I know that I must go on.
I don't know where or how?
I completely understand
That the time to start is now.





"I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust."

I hate your socks. I'd like to burn them!

The style of this one just got me.  I like how you repeated the first lines, the effect is really good.
"I know that I must go on.
I don't know where or how?

And there's that optomisim I always love to see   Great poetry!

I'm really glad that Lake bumped this up. I can really relate to this. You know that you have to move on, but you aren't really sure how. You express your feeling really beautifully. I hope that you've figured things out now!

And not be satisfied?

Dopey~
It sounds like you know what you are gonna do. That you have your mind made up. As always this was really good. And I have to catch up on all the other poems I missed by you.
