Life's Curveball Sometimes life throws you curve balls to test your courage under fire bringing you to your limits by breaking your will and spirit baraging you with life altering thoughts to usher a new era into your life one where new challenges arise from the ashes testing the waters so a new cycle can begin One where the pychie is put through it's paces toeing the line of obscurity and infamy bringing about a sense of false security then when you aren't looking turning around pulling the wool from over your eyes revealing the darker side of the light the one that consumes your pravailent thoughts taking up residence in your blood stream Pumping doubts and anxiety into your heart forcing you down when all you want is love a self assuring blanket of soothing carasses washing over your soul in a wave of warmth lifting up your spirits when downcast and low helping you through the rough patches in life building up your confidence brick by brick reviving your resolve so you can move on in stride |

Hi The Shadow in Blue, Nice to see another poem by you in here! I'm not quite sure what to think of this one, it's harder for me to discern my thoughts on it. I liked it but I'm not sure if I liked it as much as some of your others. It is hard to decide, I will have to re-read it again as soon as I finish posting this... "Sometimes life throws you curve balls to test your courage under fire bringing you to your limits by breaking your will and spirit" My favorite part^^ Sometimes it seems that life does test you by breaking you, it seems cruel when you read it, yet, it makes you better? At least sometimes it does... Great job with this one, it's a lot to think about at the moment but I believe it'll be worth the effort in the end. Thanks for sharing! "I pray thee, O God, that I |

Why thanks for the reply Stargal *cheesy smile* All right I feel like I have to explain this poem because let's just say when I wrote it...well...I wasn't in the best of moods...Actually, truthfully I was emotionally spent. *gangster Italian accent (like in Scarface)* I'd tell you, but then I'd have to kill you. Anyway, I hope to read some of your new stuff soon Stargal. ^_^ ~Jill S. |
