Array ( [sid] => 115006 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => ''Untitled'' [time] => 2006-02-18 16:41:28 [hometext] => Wrote it just now, tell me what you think........(I'd appreciate help with the title!) [bodytext] => So sick of crying,
Yourself every night to sleep,
Hiding from the world,
You've dug yourself too deep

You wonder if it's always
Gonna be like this, this way,
Cause if it really is
You'd rather turn away

Turn away from all the problems,
From this melancholy life,
The misery you're smothered by,
The never-ending strife

Alone in a world,
So sinister and dark,
Realizing that life's a journey,
That's too painful to embark

You hate yourself for losing hope,
Torturous, becoming weak,
Suffering, and restlessness,
Is the soul really yours to keep?

We can all let go, you think,
To the heavens, watch it soar
It's not meant to be on earth,
Maybe there's something else in store,

Possibilities, excuses,
For why life has been so cruel,
Irate, angry,
That you've been turned into a fool

No more hiding, you've burned the mask
That you've been wearing, pretending there is hope,
So the next time someone saw you,
You were dangling from a rope

Because you were sick of crying,
Yourself every night to sleep
Hiding from the world,
You’ve now dug yourself 6 feet too deep

I like it. Nice twist at the end. As far as a title, choose a line or phrase from the poem that interests you and make it the title.

Good write, like they said ^ the ending has a nice twist, in a rather ironic way...its good how you're up front about these things. As for the title...perhaps Stuck In This "Life"...somethine along the lines of that. Don't use that though, come up with something all your own.

I really like this poem, it has an excellent point to it! Life is too short to wallow. We have to do so but must pick up and move forward, the road ahead holds more fun than you can see, go see!:)

I become so sad when reading poems such as yours. You write very well but the emotions make me think of my daughter who nearly died because of thinking like this. Even though life is tough there is so much in the world to love and be grateful for. Blue skies, oceans, good food, friends, family, health, work. The list is really endless. All you have to do is look.
