THE ACCIDENT OF BIRTH Your smiles are false And sweetly telling lies Your sympathy don`t mean a thing When your intentions are wrong It`s only to make yourselves feel better I wonder Could my birth have been an accident My life, was it a mistake Must say, it feels that way Your disdain for me shows to well And when others so serenely sleep I writhe and the tears won`t go away "Will it ever end?" I cry silently in the dark Lingeringly I begin to accept the answer With empty steps I walk into the bathroom And into the shower The razor laughs He`ll soon give me a last kiss Sitting, I look down and think This time it`s for real And I feel strangely relieved No more I`ll have to hide the scars on my hands Where now the cold blade cuts in deeper than ever And through my wide-open vain My life spills down the drain If I believed in God I would have prayed But if you someday should see him Will you ask him this? Why I weren`t good enough for his precious life Why he forgot all about me Or why he just turned his back on me What did I do!? What have I done!? I scream within myself And as my eyes are getting heavier I feel my head begin to bow Without strength to keep it up anymore I`ve been struggeling to hold it up for to long My eyes are closing, the last tear falls Unnoticed among the water and blood Unnoticed, just like me And now as before The only thing my eyes are seeing The inside of my head And all this among the fading traces of red So farewell cruel world I left you today |

This poem opened my eyes, youre not the only one who feels like this. Sometimes I question God, but why? You arent unoticed, as I often feel myself, but dont let yourself be, as you did with this poem. It was excellent, hope to hear more in the future, keep your head up. Much love, One love, PEACE ~~~love to those who love me, and peace to those who deem it necessary~~~ |

Oh hon, like I said yesterday, you were not an accident, you are here, that means you were meant to be. You have a purpose some mission in life, you will find it someday... Look I could say the same thing, being adopted, I'm lucky to be here, I could have easily been aborted, as could my husband and a few friends in my life and here in Passions. There is a purpose for you in this world or you wouldn't be here. It may not even be that substanial, but one day, you'll know. Please stop feeling this way... it is a torment you don't need or want, that isn't true... May the world hug you today, With it's warmth and love. I pray it whispers a joyful tune in your heart, That tell you there is a friend sitting in another corner of the world, Wishing you well and wishing you love...... ~Isis~ (Goddess - Sovereign of the Spirit) |

this is a deeply powerful and painful piece, you express you emotions vividly, jm Now for me some words come easy But I know that they don't mean that much Compared with the things that are said when lovers touch You never knew what I loved in you I don't know what you loved in me Maybe the picture of somebody you were hoping I might be jackson browne |
