Array ( [sid] => 64091 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => In They Did Creep [time] => 2004-09-17 09:15:49 [hometext] => They crept back in, when my back was turned.... [bodytext] => In my mind did insecurities creep,
Only tonight did they cause me to weep,
I tried my hardest to not let them win,
But for one small moment I let them back in.

I’ve done so well over the past few days,
Right up until my fears came back into play,
I feel like I have once again failed,
As it was my pain that stepped on my tail.

My strength is already beginning to wilt,
For crying to you I am filled with guilt,
I was foolish to think that I had won my battle,
So insecurities came back to give me a rattle.

Sat here now I feel a weak & silly fool,
Why do my fears have to be so damn cruel?
I wish they’d show mercy & leave me alone,
But inside my mind is where they call home.

My defences went down because I felt good,
Sometimes I wish my heart was made from wood,
Then would no hurt be able to get through,
But never again would I feel your love so true.

It all seems a bit silly to me after I’ve had a think,
Why did I let my worries take me to the brink?
My thoughts should be so far from negative,
As I have a man who loves me & everything to give.

My little relapse won’t keep me down,
I am already picking myself back up off the ground,
I know this fight will be the hardest I’ve had to face,
But I will get to the top will dignity & with grace.

In They Did Creep

You give us a clear insight in your sorrowful struggles, Pixie... I hope you'll find a way out... And you are already standing up to them, so you're heading in the right direction!
Hugs,
Hur

we all wish our hearts were made of wood don't we..or better yet, stone? Elvis made a song ( ages ago..it's in his movie G.I. blues) and he sings about not being made of wood...I love your poem..it made me cry...someone told me you were quite young and I always thought from your poetry and comments you were much older..your writing shows great maturity..and strength. I admire you Pix..sorry my having the extra accounts troubles you..I'm trying to resolve that...mary.
