Useless Destiny |

Nobody's muse, Nobody's light, Seems to me, I'm losing the fight. Can't make a difference, Where it really counts, Can't help anyone, When it really counts. Just living a fantasy, A dream, a lie, I collapse upon life's altar, Shaking, I begin to cry. Once a guiding light, My saving light has dimmed, Only another nobody, The light has faded within. People judging, people rude, Damn it all thought I was cured, I'm a nothing once again, When oh when will this pain end? They only take, take, take, Most people in this world are fake, I offer my life and soul at the shrine, Yet 'they' won't let me shine. Why bother getting up tomorrow, Nothing will be different, It's always the same, Past problems rebounding again and again. I lay before all torn and bereft, Don't come too close, it's no use, Until life changes for me, I'm trapped aching in this useless destiny. A heart and soul are not judged by how much you love, but by how much you are loved by others... ~Isis~ (Goddess - Sovereign of the Spirit) |

"They only take, take, take,...most people in this life are fake." I have been thinking the same thoughts..maybe someone real will come along and burst my negative thinking bubble....don't worry I'll send them over to Australia to take care of yours also. Thats what friends are for. James |

please, please take out the words "I'm a nothing," to even put them down in print breaks my heart. I knew I mattered the first time someone even read one of my poems. At least I knew someone was reading part of my soul. Look at your replies, and you'll know too. Kathleen indy31_99@yahoo.com |

Alright - someone once told me Destiny is what you make it... Not that I haven't felt trapped by the same "useless destiny" you speak of, but hey - you always pick me up when I'm down so I figured I could at least try to return the favor... Love ya Dark Mistress - smile! Michael |

how come such destroyed hope from you? it's very beautiful though... and i agree with MIchael... like someone said... Destiny is not a matter of change, it's a matter of choice... great work! If all was light...then I would have never learnt the dark...from which such truth evolves from which evolves the light... Avanti Rao |

You only loose a fight if you give up. Nothing? then your the best Nothing I've ever seen, hahaha. Love ya kid. Joel. I howl a mournful song, that echos within my chambered heart, for all to read? nay for all to feel. |

Isis, ((((hugz)))) I'll be the first to say life is not easy and there are people out there that prey on others weakness but we do have a choice we can surrender and let them win or keep fighting, and I don't think the light within you has faded at all because you very much inspire and touch many with your words if anything I think it has grown so bright that it is not visible to you and maybe only those around you, I know I don't know you all that well, but you always seem so caring and giving don't forget to give a little to yourself now and then as well if you ever need to talk just email me or icq me and though I might not be able to do much besides listen to your problems, sometimes just having someone there to listen helps ... chin up take care Mystical being which makes ink flow Surround me in your incandescent glow Fill my brain with thoughts and rhyme As I try to capture but a moment in time ~Shan~ |

Gee, I liked that. Kind of introspective, reflective, "what do I have to do?", pain. You made the reader "feel" the hurt, not just "read" the hurt...and that's the way I think it should be, whether we write from personal or observed misery. Well done. Jimmy |

Isis So beautiful, so heart-wrenching. The entangled web of depression pulls us down. Know at least that we share your pain. And remember you are important to all of us here. Sylvia |
