[hometext] => we struggle with the truth of our own reality, to realize that in the end, it's simply life on lifes terms...... simple yet complex...... and hope for a better tomorrow
[bodytext] => I've never been a common man, to those who viewed my life I've known a grief, that few men have, of death, of fear and strife I faced a war, and came back home, to find more problems there Disgraced, lost in addiction, and no one seemed to care I suffer through addiction, and troubles that it brought But won against my demons, from lessons I was taught I found that it don't change your life, it only helps you cope It would have been much easier, surrendering to dope! I've never wished to harm a man, who'd given me no cause Or turned my back upon a friend, who asked me for a pause I've always tried to do what's right, and steer away from wrong Tried to teach my kids the same, so they would grow up strong I've known a life of sacrifice, but had my pleasures too Tried to live my life with pride, no matter what i do Troubles tried to sway me, and keep me from my goals Those I learned to deal with too, it taught me to be bold I've always tried to share a smile, no matter how I felt Even through my hardships, and things that I was dealt I learned that all my troubles, were from choices I had made Always tried to do my best, no matter how it played In life, I learned humility, sacrifice and pride The values that allow you to emerge the other side Making you a decent man, that most are glad to know The rest I'll try to understand, and make up as I go [comments] => 3 [counter] => 282 [topic] => 21 [informant] => dobad [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 10 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Lifepoems )

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. ©
