I Fight the Fight I fight the fight that scars my soul his words, they penetrate me deep and so he wonders why it is I wish to lay myself in sleep. It doesn't matter if one tries, as I have done my very best but I am caught in shadows hold and want to lay myself to rest. This evening I, on way to home saw beauty in a turquoise sky above the burning of sun's set, a crescent moon had caught my eye. I dwelled within the moments sight until I entered real, my world then words from lips that drank my soul unleashed the harshness, he unfurled. I am not perfect, I admit but skilled in caring, I've no flaw. Tonight I wonder why it is I fight the fight, to win them all. Each morning I awaken to and try to ease into the day. And when he enters, see in him the "once upons" I've stored away. It frightens me, how I've become so lost in feelings swaying strong and when the evening rises here he changes, and I become all wrong. So once again, I'm penning hurt typing thoughts, my heart in strain when really I would rather rhyme and write romance instead of pain. I fight the fight too often now I live in darkness most of day. So when the stars begin their shine I fold those thoughts and dream away. "The worst prison would be a closed heart". |

"I fight the fight too often now I live in darkness most of day. So when the stars begin their shine I fold those thoughts and dream away" Dream away, and keep a light shining for yourself, night and day. I'm waiting for more of those sweet rhymes of happiness, but I'll read anything you post. |

Fighting not my style Although neither is happiness I don’t frown or smile, Just wander in the darkness I’d rather just run away, Than let anger take me, Cause I see no reason to stay, It’s always easiest to flee But perhaps you can’t flee, Some are trapped where they stay, Confined so that they aren’t free, Caught in a tragic play; I hope things don’t slide to violence And that the screams recede Echoing into peaceful silence And you find the happiness you need Gloom |

Such wistful thoughts. We can put up with much in the faults of another if we truly truly love them. That is the test. I asked that myself recently and found the answer was no. If your answer is yes, then I hope all will work out and things will get better If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please? |

Such sadness and regret are in your words. I hope that your dreams will spin into reality and you will again write the visions of love you have in your heart. My heart goes out to you. Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams. |

nakdthoughts - Sad is your writing, and it touches me with your thoughts. I wait for your writings, as you once wrote which were simply beautiful. Hang in there, my thoughts are with you. BC |

I am glad that I stopped and read this ... you have strengths unbound. I trembled, I teared, I found warmth and I feared. There is darkness and yet a Wynter's light ... I have traveled to that crescent moon so high, and found in my heart I could touch the sky. Your words have touched me and I shall extend my shaking hand ... anytime!! |
