My dad. I love the guy, but sometimes he fills me with rage. This is one of those products of that anger. Steadfast Soul Barriers surround your ears Obstinance blocks your compassion Suppressed anger inhibits the logic The sanity is just a ration. Listen to those around you Silence is present only because you do not The years caused you to forget They made life appear as a plot. We're not out against you No one really is when logic is applied Give your soul forgiveness The kind of which has almost died. Truth is the personal belief we have This gift may sway any way it wishes Your desire and unmercifullness Grants us all proverbial dirty dishes. I'm tired of cleaning them Present me with more pleasant rewards My words don't sting as you assume They heal the spirit without the aid of your lack of Lord. "The only thing that boggles the mind is the mind itself." |

I know exactly how you feel, as a teenage girl I fight with my dad constantly, and it seems like he thinks everyone is out to get him. It's sooo annoying Great Write ~Lisa P.S. your sig is a bible verse, but it was also the theme of WYD 2002, did you go? |

No, I'm not even exactly sure what type of gathering that may be. Christian, I'm guessing..? Though I am not a Christian myself, I have it there because I find it inspiring. I hold the belief that we all are "the light of the world". We each contribute to it's well-being or lack thereof through everyday actions. Or so, that's what I hold to be true. Thank you so much for responding to my poem. =o} "The only thing that boggles the mind is the mind itself." |

yes this brings me back to about three years ago. i felt this same way about my dad. but ahh.. you get over it in time.. people act certain ways for certain reasons. forgive and forget. evelyn i believe we are all light of the world too. while i respect christ and know he loves us all, i dont categorize myself as a christian either. i say theres more people than just jesus who loved the whole world so truly as jesus did Life is a lonely journey to, and a heavy-hearted departure from three words. I LOVE YOU |
