[hometext] => let me know what you think this poem is about
[bodytext] => I feel it staring Not with feeling Staring Waiting Waiting for me To devour me I catch a glimpse Walking by a window There it is again I pass it in the hall Sometimes I fight Though I know not What it is Who it is I only know it wants me A dark tide That floods my heart Overwhelming my will Controlling my actions As I watch in horror Appalled at the destruction It destroys my family Corrupts my friends Devours my soul And leaves me vacant When it passes When it has gorged It’s desire through my flesh I’m left in my own anguish For the terror it has caused I have caused I battle it’s dominance And I pierce it’s heart With the sword of light But I feel my heart pierced It’s pain is my own How can I win How can this evil be Stopped It has to be stopped Who can tame the hunger of this specter Who can thwart the desire Of this nameless terror I feel it watching again I turn quickly it dashes away I chase it I won’t let it control me I can’t catch it I can’t see it But I feel it’s presence The suffocating oppression Surrounding me I run and run My legs ache with the pain My heart aches with anger I’m blind with rage I will destroy it Even if it destroys me I will take back control I will be the Master again I turn another corner There it is Staring at me Unmoving I see the face of my demon The image of that face Will haunt my soul I fall down before it The pain is unbearable The shame is unbearable The weight of a thousand Sins falls on my shoulders The fear of a thousand hells falls on my heart The face is terrible The face is merciless The face Is mine [comments] => 5 [counter] => 537 [topic] => 62 [informant] => plummer [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 4 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => spiritual )

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. ©
