And I am saying...how can it be..when it never was..
I suppose I lost in the deck.. when mixing with the crowd
I've had too many turns...yet still I see..
when I give up...rather you than me...
Hate to feel..
yet feel I still do..
and when it becomes of love..oh, what should I do..
I guess it's the price I pay..
for being me..
but..I can still weep..for that which I see..
I'm locked within this form...
but still I cry..
and I say...hey now..what's to be..
the only answer I get...is  'why is it me?"
but I laugh out loud..and hide my pain..
without the sorrow I feel..
who would care for me..
I am lost in a crowd...
and feel lonesome alone..
so yet I scream..
yet it is I, I spurn..
And whatever does come..I still can see..
in the end..
whatever I harm...
still is me...

What do I see?  When I look into your words and therefore you... I see a sensitive, smart man, whose happiness is just around the corner.  Stay in focus hon, it will find you!!  
Wonderful work of emotional meanderings...

 There is only one corner of the universe you can be certain of improving, and that's your own self...

WOW Edward this is powerful writing....
I took a couple days off from  "the Dark" but, Im glad I didnt miss this...
very well written and expressed...depth of soul searching...very good,
take care jm

 Do you live by the book, do you play by the rules
Do you care what is thought by others about you
If this day is all that is promised to you
Do you live for the present, the future the past...

Thank you both,

Isis,
This is me focused...knowing myself,

Janet,

Thanks for the continuing support of the thing I call art, though depressing it may be

My friend you are in this crowd and you shine.
Joel.

 I howl a mornful song, that echos within my chambered heart, for all to read? nay for all to feel.

be yourself...it's the hardest thing to do sometimes...but your poem speaks of you just hanging in there...
way to go!



 If all was light...then I would have never learnt the dark...from which such truth evolves
from which evolves the light...

Sorry For Never, you seem to be wrong on your self analysis, and everyone agrees so there!!  

 A heart and soul are not judged by how much you love, but by how much you are loved by others...
