I Cannot See

Contributed by deadheadpoet on Thursday, 19th October 2006 @ 04:52:44 PM in AEST
Topic: anguished








I cannot see
what you see.

I cannot see
me.

I'm lost out on the freeway
horns honking,
brakes screeching,
black marks are laid.
I'm not going to find my way back;
I'm afraid.

I do so .....
want to get back on track
empty this damn full sac
of troubles.
All the woes that weigh me down;
dump 'em on the ground.

Be free from doubt.
Be sane for awhile,
see what that's all about.

Wish I could see things
like you do.

Why am I plagued by so many fears?
I've cried so many tears.

Now....

I cannot see.

aw sis ... how much "awhile back" was this ? I hope it is
not how you are feeling now hun. Such pain and fear
surround this write. I feel your torture, hun ~

Still .. an interesting and skilled piece it is. There is
much in here to gather and relate to.

*hugs*

SIs,

intense emotions run throughout this write.
It played out so very clearly, almost made my heart race at times........

I hope that those fears are leaving you now.

Wow - I like this. The conversational tone, the use of words... it's a very good piece to give the reader the meaning while using a minimum of words. Very well done.
So many clever points in this - such as the first two stanzas and the forth and fifth.
Great write!

- Tim
