Just to be seen proud Unforgiven days blurred by a drunken shout “ is there a way out?!!” trapped in places I’ve already been forgotten dreams, never pretend drown my mistakes in a place where I can swim regretfully sure of all misfortune to be more than me greater than my unrelenting poison…..”the dream” find grace, taken in by a forgiving ocean wave all are punished still searching for something tired and running fast time to turn accept my demons, embrace the past find my way to sleep avoid falling too deep close my eyes, wander off to my relief holding close every second within that dream smile a little longer, laugh a little harder, enjoy my own grin because my eyes will open in the morning and I know…...... tomorrow I’ll have to start all over again. -Xerxes [This message has been edited by xerxes (02-19-2002 01:53 AM).] |

This is very good. I like it a lot. It sort of explains to me what life really is, not just what people wish it is. I don't know if that's what you meant by it, but that's what it means to me. I give a whole new meaning to the word 'sad.' |

It's good to see that in this poem you have an optimistic ending. Keep up the good work! "You do what you do, you say what you say, you try to be everything to everyone... come on now, do that stupid dance for me" -Everclear |
