Array ( [sid] => 57845 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => I spend about a moment [time] => 2004-07-28 02:34:09 [hometext] => It would take way to long to explain why I wrote this which was just how I felt at the time read into it what you will and plz comment away!! [bodytext] =>
I spend about a moment wondering what I can do,
To change the path that you seem to choose.

Then I remember why nothing seems to change,
When you are always running away.

You sit there in your little room all-full of fear and rejection.
Never knowing what you crave is right in front of you.

You hate everything around you but it’s your own
Reflection that you can’t face.

You spend everyday in self-recrimination never making any
Difference in your life at all.
You wallow in self-pity till its makes your stomach crawl.

You despise your life, your love, and your law and yet never learn anything at all.

You talk of trust and things you say you know then you turn your back and there you go.

And you wonder what went wrong why you’re all alone and yet the tears never fall it’s as if you never had a soul at all.

You always have big plans that seem to fade and yet you sit in expectation everyday.

Some just seem to purposely set themselves up for failure. I don't seem to be able to understand why.

youll have to tell me about this piece more in detail nexxa. an excellent write of example. i see you rhyme sometimes =] you explained this out very well yet keeping the vagueness so people can relate it to themselves and live it in their shoes. you seem to have spoken this as truth as you see it that isnt diluted. writes that are not afraid to express are the writes that live. =]

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. Â©
