First of all, I think these don't belong in this forum for all the poems I've read in here simply amazes me. I just wanna share them in return for allowing me the chance to read yours. So, here's some of em: ---------------------------------------------------- Footprints in the sand... Why do I see four instead of two? Alone, left with the irony of life Faith wounded and scarred What am I to do? Troubles and Tribulations? Life's meaning is lost in dreams Begging for answers and miracles Wanting her back A fool, I am, it seems Shown the way back This is not an option to take Please listen to my prayers I'll love her forever Help me before it's too late Footprints in the sand... Still, I see four Exhausted, lost, and confused Keep searching no matter what Wanna be with her forever more ---------------------------------------------------- Why am I given this life if I only have to go thru all these pain? Seeing everything I hope for and dream of slowly fade away Overflowing distress? Total confusion? Faith to denounce? Why must Life make me hurt, bleed, and suffer everyday? A disease slowly eating thru everything that I have lived for To supposedly be kept and can never be returned till taken? So unfair and merciless that just like that, insanity fills my mind Why must I be grateful for a chance to be in a world uncertain? I bleed for all who suffers, I don't want anyone to feel the same This is unjust. Peace of mind is gone and no where to be found Where is the help I have been taught to ask and pray for? What is life's real meaning, if in shackles I am forever bound? I am tired of crying, hurting, and just plain tired of everything I have no where to hide, no one to turn to for I am full of doubt When do I heal? Time's worth is no essence to me anymore Just want to know the truth and finally realize what I'm living for ---------------------------------------------------- I love you... I love you with all my heart, my mind, my soul I'll love you even beyond Death's knock at my door Like a stream flowing from the rains of an April day A flower's blooming scene during the month of May I love you without doubt and questions asked I'll love you even after eternity's time has already passed Like horizon's gold on morning's daily gift of light Or a full moon's pride on a cloudless and starry night I love you beyond love's own unexplored definition I'll love you even thru all of love's own contradictions Like an eagle's majesty as it spreads it's wings in flight Or that of a parent's touch on their newly born child Above all... I love you for I've realized one thing to be true I'll always love you for I realized that "Love is You" I love you... ---------------------------------------------------- Footprints in the sand...? I see no changes, wake up in the morning I ask myself, "Is life worth living or should I blast myself" TUPAC SHAKUR |

Hmmmm...why would you feel your words don't belong here? Your words spoke to me...were true, were YOU...as any poet's express their own unique vision. I enjoyed these poems of yours very much and am glad I had the opportunity to read them...I hope to see more...please? =) LJ "A smile is when your inner beauty comes outside." |

acire, these are beautiful poems. I have sent them to myself so I can read them again at my leisure, off line. I think we have all had doubts about our poems at some time or other. I believe all it takes to belong here is an ability to write and a love of poetry and people. I think you have filled that criteria. It is good to always want to improve, but don't let that get confused with thinking you can't write. You can! I'm DEFINITELY NOT saying you need to but if YOU think you need improvment try the workshops. I found them today and I'll be back (because I DO need help, but I'm not brave enough to go to CA).

Acire~ If we threw a pity party for poet's without a clue We'd have to leave you out for there is talent in you ! Now quit your belly-aching and hunker down and write ... We appreciate your stuff so share with us each night. Read the works of others and leave a sweet reply others will get to know you on that you can rely From each poet that I've read I've learned a thing or two ... We crank it out and share it for we're poets true-blue ! See .... you already inspired me ! ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

"I Love you for I've realized one thing to be true I'll always love you for I realized Love is you." Very nice writing...I enjoy experiencing love within relationships with others...James |
