You wish to understand me?
Then assist in the rebuilding of
This miserable existence called my life
Wipe away this darkness and isolation
You ask to be let in but if I agree
You run, shattering my trust and
Causing me to build my wall even higher
Many say they understand but how many really do?
I've been called a light by many,
A counsellor by some
Others say the gift of Prophecy has been
Bestowed upon me
That may be so; I don't know
One has called me a bright star in the night sky
I appreciate that greatly
That one understands life at its worst
That one doesn't know how highly I think of him
Maybe he'll read this, maybe he won't
Maybe he's here, maybe he's not
But he'll understand whether he reads it or not
Life is ended in a heartbeat
I mourn the stupidity of some
How can they do that to themselves?
To their parents?
To their friends?
And yet, I can't help but think,
Who would mourn me if I did that?
Who would cry?
Who would carry on?
But I'm not that stupid
I may have shut myself off from the
So-called real world
But I will not do that.

For some reason this poem reminded me of the line, "there are worse things I could do". You know the misunderstood girl from Grease who sings that song. That's actually my favorite part of the movie. Anywho...

So much can be revealed in isolation. What we choose to do with the "new" information is our choice. I hope you can make something of all this. Good luck... since I know that's the tricky part.

Thank you for posting this. It was a very enjoyable read full of emotion, depth, and wisdom.

Passion fuels my love
Passion becomes consumed by my love
Without my love I become passionless

Sky,

All I can say is, I loved this piece, it was wonderfully written, deep, emotional, and, a good write. Also, I'll do my best to be the shoulder I've tried to be for you when life get's trying. I'll continue to pray, my friend. God bless, and I'll talk with you soon. You're a great friend. Again, a wonderful write.

Sincerley,
Titus

Such a wonderful poem, I just remembered that I hadn't replied to it, I loved reading this the first time but it was even more delightful the fifth

Find me a problem a pigeon can't solve and I'll find you a pigeon to solve it.
