[bodytext] => Just once I want to stop these wretched thoughts from coming down so hard on me,
Just once I want to stop this piercing pain from digging deep inside of me.
Just once I want to save my soul from being rotten,
Just once I want to feel whole, not completely broken.
Just once I want not to lie on the bed of needles,
Just once I want to solve all the mind-boggling riddles.
Just once I want to stand upright and leave the swampy ground,
Just once I want to feel good, not so woefully down!
Just once I want to be colourful like the butterfly’s iridescent wings,
Just once I want them not to have me on a string!
Just once I want to stop the paroxysms of rage,
Just once I want to grapple with this bitter ache.
Just once I want not to drink my own tears,
Just once I want to shrug off all the doubts and fears.
Just once I want not to make any more mistakes,
Just once I want to have a lucky break!
Just once I want to have a good night's sleep,
Just once I want to have some peace.
Just once I want them to let me be!
Just once I want to know; has God listened to me?

Your writing is powerful...i want to help
close your eyes..
turn half way around
open your eyes
maybe all the pain will come out in reverse.
if it works..you'd be happy again
maybe it will work...

When I was a fighter pilot I invented a mental proceedure for putting al my troubles behined me as I walked/ran out to my aircraft..
I imagined heavy steel shutters dropping down on each dorway, ground duties, debts, girl friends, appointments, problems etc etc etc etc leaving me clear to concentrate on the flight and nothing else
It takes practice but the demands of the task in hand make it essential. After a year or so the whole thing becomes automatic as the pre-flight checks take over.
Concentrate on what you are going to do next. |

Waalikum Assalam!
Well no, I don't have any website of my own. I think my talent still needs a lot polishing to shine enough. But anyway, thank you for liking my poems. |
