[hometext] => This poem explains(for the most part) my personal experience with the aftermath of running from emotions.
[bodytext] => I flew the coop, I was soo scared on the night I knew you cared That night I knew there was more to life than swinging around a double bladed knife No one knows the pain I feel Wounds from the knife take too long to heal I played the field, hurting none that deserved but for the player, the true pain is reserved For the player who plays the game the pain he deals he feels the same But I hid from truth, I hid from happiness In my hiding I've left a mess But I write this now because I've learned to feel Even though I've hurt many and some will never heal My life is changing, the games is done I played forever but I never won This late night I write this, thinking of you to myself, your memory helps me be true The words you said still fill my ears What they meant still brings me to tears I thank you for showing me the way I can only hope to see you again someday As I put away the knife and welcome myself to a new life In all the time I've spent with you I've realized happiness may be true [comments] => 2 [counter] => 150 [topic] => 48 [informant] => crash [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 4 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => EmotionalPoetry )
