Keys Thrown Away Into this quiet corner Its my solitary zone No one will see me A heartbreaks alone The state of oblivion Enables me to hide In wearing pretense Heartbreaks reside The sadness I abide Aches are caged in Emotions confined Heartbreaks within My heart tearful lair The despair is kept Keys thrown away Heartbreaks I wept Left in this situation I keep blaming me In tears of lonliness Heartbreaks reality HopeĀ©2002 |

It may be said that we all make our own prisons. And of course, consigning one's heart to a dungeon- then to discard the keys, is what is often felt as needful for one's survival- both emotive and physical, (as if they could be seperated) yet the very knowledge of those keys, wantonly cast aside- offer the only escape possible. If one can find within the desire for light over night. These in the cerebral did your words inspire. Merci, for sharing your perspective. Perhaps words may be thy cathartic agent.

Hope, Is this an invitation to a pity party. Sorry...we all have our bouts with a need to face the sad parts of our lives. But I seem to have this need to offer a smile regardless. Hope you don't mind. I certainly felt the pain in this piece and hope that is reflective of the past rather than the present. In either case I hope for a brighter day for you tomorrow. Peace. Everybody thinks of changing humanity and nobody thinks of changing himself. Leo Tolstoy |
