[hometext] => When things go bad, how do we survive?
[bodytext] => Unfurling my wings soaring into the sky Leaving behind all my pain lest I should die Sun's bright rays lost in sturdy wings of black Never return to the nest I'm not going back An arrow pierces my heart my lean physique trails blood The earth's coming closer I slam into the mud My wings are useless No longer can fly My body is shattered I break down and cry Longingly look into azure where flying is best I'm no longer up there I've failed the test Death roams this earth and danger is near Crying out in terror will anyone hear? The predators stalk me I'm sensing the beast On my bloody carcass the enemy will feast Panic powers my body I get up and run No longer airborne or companion to sun Sweat lacquers my body The enemy's near Closing in on me He smells my fear Another attacks him as I run away More than exhausted But I'll live today The rules have all changed I'll never be whole The loss of flight condemns my soul Fear paralyzes me I linger near death My lungs collapse I near my last breathe The moment draws out I might even survive Yes, it is true I am alive! After some time I feel better and try less to fret One step after another Fade into sunset [comments] => 3 [counter] => 175 [topic] => 48 [informant] => Jaycee [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => EmotionalPoetry )

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. ©
