Array ( [sid] => 95834 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => What Once Was [time] => 2005-05-26 12:39:44 [hometext] => Just some thoughts after a difficult time, written as a healer. As I am finding me happiness again. [bodytext] => As I am standing before you
Waiting for your approval
Wondering if I am suited
For your compassion doomed by lust

Seeing your lips move
Without the spoken words
Forever you are screaming
While I am muted

Slowly you breaking down
The innerself of me
Me every existence
Crumbled in small pieces

No more I can take
For all this agony
What once was
Now forever crushed

Walls breaking down
Piece by piece
Unraffeling its gates
To the open fields of joy

Reveiling the route to happiness
As I find the light in this darkness
I am letting go of you
Your frustation and anger

I am thanking you for this lesson
Learned from these mistakes
Stronger I will become
Not looking back on what once was
A simple feeling mistaken for love [comments] => 4 [counter] => 167 [topic] => 32 [informant] => xXx_Fem_Fatale_xXx [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 9 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => SadPoetry )

What Once Was

It happens to many. Just keep walking forward and never look back.

I think this is a good write, but it could've been a great write if you delved more into your emotions...Don't hold back next time...Also there were several typos, so you may want to look it over a bit closer in the future. Keep it up! Scorp.

I think this poem is truly inspirational. Sad, with agony & pain, & then moving on in your victorious ending; walking tall. Brilliant.

You have a wonderful way with words!

Hugggsss,
