I see not, I be not, I struggle to be not forgot, But die in the mire I have brought, Never finding what I sought I become nothing Just a lost something Cast off by myself to my cage I became nothing Yet it sparks no inner rage Since I die in mire I have brought Never finding what I sought. In the darkness I’m there For none to notice or to care For who searches the dark of nowhere But me and the spirit dead, The pain screams inside my head The imagined will not spread For they are silent screams there That my memories can’t shed But will hide in the dark of nowhere. It’s not the fault but of me And my dismal tendency to be, No arms holding will sooth No gentleness easy my mood I just wander in search of a tomb Unable to ever escape this gloom I see not, I be not, I struggle to be not forgot, But as always fail And never prevail Gloom |

Ah Sir, your dark is despondent this day... How I applaud those that can see clearly in the dark, how they work with it, strive against it, sometimes accept the warmth of it. I don't know that I could do so, but I am proud of the people that realize their need to be where they are. |

I become nothing Just a lost something Cast off by myself to my cage I became nothing Yet it sparks no inner rage Since I die in mire I have brought Never finding what I sought. Prof., even though I don't understand this, it is very interesting to me. You know, there probably really are people who feel this way. Being me, I just want to be able to help them not to feel that way. But, maybe the feelings for them really "spark no inner rage" the way you wrote?? Hugs to you, Prof. Ethel |

Thank you, Sunshine, My despondence is usually dark, my acceptance is equal to the darkness we each do what we must to deal with ‘things’. Where I respond in one manner Others would respond differently, You would burn off the darkness with the light of your smile And I, without a smile, simply walk into the dark Thank you, garysgirl, Pleased you enjoyed, I would help you understand If I knew the questions you needed answered, But you, one of the light, need not worry about them Simple keep avoiding the shadows Thank you, Nan I post all my main writings here Glad you like them Gloom |
