[hometext] => It was a dark time for me when I wrote this, but the process really helped me come to terms with things.
[bodytext] => Winding trail to nothing The path beyond extinction Buried tracks and brittle bones Yet where is recollection? Consumption - no conservation Conversation but no consensus Admissions but not of guilt Never true confessions Empty promise, broken dreams No ambition, fear exceeds Answers far from defined truths Skeletal hands around the noose Heart so empty, so it seems Yet love is there That's why it bleeds Step beyond the road thats paved Or risk the early living grave Reach inside and grip it tight For outside forces have titan might And what is left for one to see? It's just oneself on grounded knee Truth it seems just out of reach Words so empty when they preach Answers come like winter sun Sporadic, incomplete Extend the hand with open palm Except what is received Expect what no one can foresee And never be deceived Expectations, resolutions Pious message, institution Trust that nothing can be trusted Our Savior's hold is frail and rusted Just live life, make mistakes Learn then grow, avoid the snakes Answers are not what will save The Question eternally transcends the grave [comments] => 3 [counter] => 256 [topic] => 61 [informant] => jesusofholland [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => selfstruggles )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
