Secrets wrapped in mysters Bars around my heart I can only cause you misery Don't let the feelings start Tears under the guise of rain Half truths, but not lies Caring for me only brings pain In the end it will be you who crys I don't wan tto hurt you Don't let me in your heart Yet still I'm drawn to you Don't let the feelings start Maybe I'm too weak Unable to say goodbyes But listen when I speak In the end it will be you who crys Build bars around your heart Embrace the truth as a lie Don't let the feelings start In the end it will be you who crys Right now it's okay You call yourself a friend But it will happen one day And I already know the end "A poet is one who spends a lifetime standing out in thunderstorms, waiting to be hit by lightning" ~Randal Jarrell~ |

This is the end, my only friend the end.. Hope you don't really feel this way hon, you don't kill every relationship that comes your way.. I can't believe that. Superb work! ![]() There is only one corner of the universe you can be certain of improving, and that's your own self... ~Isis~ (Goddess - Sovereign of the Spirit) |

You know, I feel the same in a lot of ways here. Like people are only setting themselves up for pain by caring about me. In some measure like I (although I want to) can never equal the love they're presenting me. Good poem, StarrGazer, really had me reflecting on this one. Michael |

Angel Usagi, just_another_fe, Isis, Sven, Michael - thanks for responding to my poem Now to answer the question "Do I really feel this way?" yes to some extent I do ... I'm wary of everyone, trying to figure out their hidden motives even in fact if none exist. I guess trust doesn't come easy and I don't really give it the chance. What is a relationship without trust but a heartache waiting to happen... and as Michael said I feel like I don't deserve the persons love or am not worthy of it and one day they'll see throught the illuison they have made of me and it will be them who is hurt because I've known all along I was not worthy and took their love anyway ...

Great poem StarrGazer. I relate to the emotions all to well. I too find it hard to trust people. I also find it hard to belive that the ones that seem to love or like me just pretends to. Keep on writing, hug to you ~Broken I`m running out of time, I`m out of step and closing down, I never sleep for wanting hours the empty hours of greed. And uselessly always the need to feel again the real belief, of something more than mockery. If only I could fill my heart with love. -Robert Smith |

Great poem, applies very much to me in my life right now, although in a slightly different way to how I imagine you intended. I really like a girl but I'm leaving the country in a month, so I don't want to get involved because I know it will have to end, and it'll only bring pain. I like the girl so I don't want to bring her pain, but I like her so I want to get involved. Your poem summed up the paradox I'm in nicely. Thank you very much ** It seems I've waited years for this day to end. - Ronan Harris Thanks for reading, hope you're still awake. |
