Falling Getting up Falling again Not for a guy Just down Just from lack of balance in life From all the thoughts spinning From the memories flowing... Feeling ready to faint From these spinning thoughts Harsh words penetrated my heart and soul Scaring me, scarring me Haunting me, tearing me apart Ripping my heart open And no matter how hard I try It will spill, and all will be known Unless I lock it up In the back of my mind And through away the key Like Pandoras Box With the warning Do not open unless you know what you are getting into... *Me* *If you don't stand for something, you'll fall for anything* *A smile is a curve that straightens out a lot of things* |

Wow, this is a great poem! I love it, but I really hope you can release those emotions safely. It can be pretty hard. "Some men see things as they are and say why. I dream things that never were and say why not." ~RFK |

I liked this, I've read a poem with this title before, but i think it was well written. ![]() I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. I'm in love with my shadow I admire it daily |

Big deal, Javier. So the title has been used. I'm sure it happens thousands of times with each of the poems we write in here. In fact, I remember us having two poems called "The Truth" on Teen #4, page one. In fact, they were right next to one another. ![]() *ahem* back to the poem... Great job! The beginning was interesting... "falling, not for a guy, but just for lack of balance." Well said... good wording, all in all an excellent read. ![]() ~Allan If I had your eyes, I'd be blind. For I can only see out of my own. ~~Carly Van Dort |

Good job. I like this... thanks for the good read. --Marie I never thought that you would ever be the one to let me down. I guess that just goes to show how wrong I always am. |
