I wrote this a while back, when i was busy wallowing in the pit of my drepression and had gone into hibernation. the spelling errors and incorrect grammar and missing words are intentional. if you cant relate to it-good! its meant to be that way, if it annoys you then all the more better. so yeah, tell me what you think and i promise not to torture you any longer (only when i feel like it...)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


The fear of my loneliness-hers


The dirt moves inside me,
Shifting and wriggling out of place
Before finding its clean niche.
Resting amongst the chaotic
Remains of soiled laundry,
Of the cries of abandoned children,
And yesterdays undigested dinner.

Loneliness has found its home
Bringing with it the
Sheltered, quiet, whispering voices
Of freedom…

Know longer gnown as 'I'
For she has become Her.
I,
It.

These four walls. That linen.
Her yellow stains.
Her red ones below the yellow ones.
Hidden as intricately as she hides her mind,
And the voices.

The shrieks and cars filter through shut blinds
-Floating melodies to compliment her beauty.
And the oil that accumulates upon her unwashed skin.

  " 'Cause inside you're ugly
      You're ugly like me"1

And love it as its tears fall
In the early hours of its seemingly eternal darkness,
Because its arms hug its waist and shoulder
Moving the pieces of charcoal and fallen hair
Inside of her.

I really loved this one... very interesting! This was my favorite part:

Loneliness has found its home
Bringing with it the
Sheltered, quiet, whispering voices
Of freedom…

Know longer gnown as 'I'
For she has become Her.
I,
It.

I'm not sure why really, but it just rubbed me the right way.  I hate that expression but that's the only one I could think of quickly. lol "It tickles my fancy" sounds kind of cool though.

Cherish this was amazing. You always outdo yourself. This little window to your soul shows alot, while still keeping things hidden. I'm sorry that you had to go through the that time in your life, but its what made you who you are now. And thats who we all love and cherish. (no pun intended) :p

Fantastic job on this, creative with the format and the quote fits in very nicely (*loves that song*). the whole thing ties together nicely.. great imagery and language. Altogether.. it was one of your best (that i've read atleast). Keep writing, and ill keep reading. Library this goes. *hugS*

I know Im not perfect but I can smile
& I hope that you c this heart behind my tired eyes

Hey---I finally got around to coming back here! And now that I have...reading your poem has definetley shown me that not coming here was a bad idea!

I liked this work---all your poems are beautifully written. They're not just...there---you have to think aboutn it to get the ultimate message! I like that! Thanks for sharing!

Others are too in love with the sound of their own voice to speak the truth...

All I can say is wow. I understood it somewhat, and even though there were parts I didn't understand, I still love it. And greatly written on top of everything else! And thanks for your replies!

Humm... If I could write as well as you, I might have something to say... All I can say, is it was good. I did identify with parts of it, but I'll keep it to myself. Glad to know this isn't something going on right now. Hope to see more of your writing... I know its better than mine! lol...

This was very good. I definately got some personal meaning out of this one. Putting that song in there made it hit home a lot stronger.

Cherish you are such a wonderful, poet I do hope that you decide to leave as you are one of the very few flowers left in this dreary place. I know the suspension of your posting priveledges must be awful but I hope you know that you have at least one supporter here.
