"Empty Comfort" When you're angry and don't know why Then you'll understand When you wonder what's so bad about being high Then you'll understand When you think you're not worth being sad Then you'll understand When you wonder why you're mad Maybe you'll understand Or if you look back on your life and lose all hope Maybe you'll understand And when you can't deal with life and forget how to cope Maybe you'll understand When you think about ending your life Tell me you understand When you look to your wrist then to the knife Tell me you understand When you want to talk with god but forget the number to dial Tell me you understand When you're searching for a place where you can have your own style You might understand When you don't know how to feel or what to think You might understand And if you throw away your world and drown it in a drink You might understand "Happiness is nothing without the contrast of sadness" -ME! |

True. Good poem. It's hard to believe others when they say they understand. The truth is they prolly DON'T fully understand but their intentions are still the same, and I find comfort in that. Good poem, Jason ps I like your quote. very true. pss for some one who said he is not concerned with style, you made another unique piece here. Actually that makes perfect sense. Anyhow I'm rambling... < !signature--> "Every body has their destiny... I'LL CHOOSE MY OWN ~Hatebreed~ [This message has been edited by IsGona (edited 01-08-2001).] |

Don't know how many times I'm aloud to reply to my own stuff but just to inform people my screen name isn't literall, myself and a few other viewed some of my earlier work and we all thought it so twisted that either I was insane or on hallucinogens when writing them...simple story for a complex mind anyways thanx for readin my poem. |

Well this has me thinking too. It is written in a great way, it's a strongly worded poem. "Disagreements stimulate thought, thought stimulates action, and action stimulates life." --Lakewalker http://www.thehungersite.com |

Poet on Acid..I love you! I read your poems and get chills because.. it sounds like.. ME! The thoughts I cant express in my head are the poems you write, the way I feel is what you say. Keep writing I love them |

awww I'm loved, DAMN IT! so much for the dark part of me where I draw my inspiration from...well thank you for ruining what could have been one of the greatest writers of all time. <<<*J/K*>>> actually thank you alot, I like knowing someone is getting something out of my work, and don't worry about getting more...I have notebooks full of them...(shhh...they're mostly filled with doodles...) >¶Øʆ< |

This made me cry. It was so sad and so true. That's exactly how I feel (somtimes). But if u think bout it, a lot of teenagers feel that way...it's just somtimes embarressing to talk about it because you think no one else goes through the same thing. Wonderful poem! ~If I had a star for everytime you made me smile, I'd be holding the entire midnight sky in my hands~ |

thanks you lilpoet, though I didn't want to make anyone cry...But I know that knowing that someone else has the same things running through their mind as you do and that someone feels the same things you do can help you feel better alot of times. >¶Øʆ< |
