Young in body.. old in mind.. i fear.. no one will ever see.. this pain in my heart in clenches and acts like a dagger.. my pillows tear staind i have cried I HAVE WEPT. don't let this become defeat.. barely walking so angry, shivering multiplying evens.. for i fear the odds.. do you even remember? I want to scream I HAVE CRIED.. no one can see, my words overflow with this ache, this never ending pain that love has left me with.. you'll never understand how it must feel to be hit head on by the new happiness that i've not yet found.. but you, you have.. everything. i have cried, and still do.. all through the night i wither in knowing that you are no longer mine.. i have lost the control, and the possession of your heart.. you will give to another, and maybe more than I'd ever recieved.. no one will see.. that my mind is nothing but small wrinkles of what I've been through. of the pain that caused me to weep..oceans.. young in body.. |

Although you've cried many tears And faced some of your greatest fears The sun will shine ever bright And the sea will give you back your enchanting light angleblueyes |

of the pain that caused me to weep..oceans.. young in body.. ~*~ Interesting concept - to weep oceans young in body... Not sure what causes your muse to help you write such angst ridden poetry - but you do it well... Very well. |

don't let this become defeat.. barely walking so angry, shivering multiplying evens.. for i fear the odds.. do you even remember? I want to scream Damn do i know this... He will never know, nor imagine the pain he's caused. Small minded, narrow heart, clenched soul. why do they always haunt? however much you try and despise them. but you can't, because you loved them, with a passion, unconditionally. I'll stop ranting now. library! Instant karma's gonna get you. |

we need the pain sometimes to unveil what we have inside, to get to know ourselves more deeply, and then to become friends of our inner being. The essence of emotions fills what you write and I thank you for allowing us to smell it Bless you Iyad "Hallow the body as a temple to comeliness and sanctify the heart as a sacrifice to love; love recompenses the adorers." |

Oh yes...I know this as well... Painful emotions here, and you've expressed them beautifully. Big hugs to you, my friend... If you judge people, you have no time to love them. --Mother Teresa [This message has been edited by vlraynes (09-07-2003 05:08 AM).] |

When I was a kid my older brother and I, in preparation for fishing, went out to dig worms. We found instead a bunch of tiny snakes -- which we decided to catch in the worm jar just for fun. We took them and showed them to my uncle. He turned white as a sheet. Because, we had in fact, caught baby copperheads. They hatch out fully venomous and lethal as an adult. Sometimes, I think, its easy for people to forget that the young experience full hatched out venomous emotion just like us old f.. um... fogeys do. you are young though Meg... be young of heart too.. the body gets old so quickly |

I too have given everything I have--and lost it all, you are not alone, in the pain or the silence. Always look forward, never look back, dreams are much more refreshing than regrets. |

For every tear, tear that's falling a thought to hear, hear it's calling ... Every word was deeply felt before it was even read ... |

I find music is the perfect drug in situations like this. And writing. Fine writing. Like this wonderful piece, Kaoru. .m. [This message has been edited by bsquirrel (09-08-2003 07:13 PM).] |
