[hometext] => In 1984, my father was diagnosed with a rare, terminal disease. He was given 6 months to survive, but lasted for 10 years. Each day he withered away a little more. I was only 14.
[bodytext] => Everybody has a million questions Everybody wants to know the score What you went through was terrible But it shouldn't haunt you anymore Everybody wants to know the secrets...you've never told a soul before But it's not that strange Because it wouldn't change What happened anyhow You made a promise to yourself a long time ago There were things in your life no-one needed to know It's one that you'll keep That you've buried so deep No-one will tear it out. You can talk about it now But you've vowed a code of silence You're never going to lose the anger You just learn to deal with it in a different way You feel a kind of madness To be living by a code of silence When you've really got so very much to say. You still have that rage inside you That you carry with a certain pride. The only part of your broken heart you could save. I know you well enough to know your reasons It's not the kind of code your inclined to break Some things are best left alone forever If a vow is what it takes How will you pay for your mistakes. After the moment passes The emptiness is still very clear But you hold the tears back Because you don't crack...that easily It's time for a resolution Because the sadness is always here It's with you now But that's not how you're supposed to feel. It's hard to believe after all these years You can still feel the pain And still taste the tears You feel like a fool Because despite all the rules You've still got a memory.

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. ©
