can't you see that she's trying?

One minute she's fine
and then again crying.

She did it today
she got out of bed.
The hours she slept
should help clear her head.

You think that you're helping
when nice words you say.
She knows that you mean well
when you say that you'll pray.

She can't take your pity
You don't know how she feels.
And what's more, if you're lucky
you never will. [comments] => 5 [counter] => 184 [topic] => 48 [informant] => anitajames [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 15 [ratings] => 3 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => EmotionalPoetry )

This is good. I am glad there is a such thing as forgiveness. Good advice from one friend to another.

Simply yet so ellequently(sp.?) put, this is wonderful portrayal of what I would assume is about addiction? Maybe not, nonetheless, Im in recovery as well, it is an insane,insane, struggle, I've been in recovery for 7 years and still cannot quit, I keep going back,the poetry I write is all basically surrounded by my an addiction, I swear to God, if you can stay sober it will be the best thing youll ever do for yourself, trust me, I am speaking from my current and past expieriences, drugs will turn u into a demon, trust me, I question the powers of evil through drug use, it brings out the worst in you, please take care, don't let anyone tell u what to do, trust yourself and youll make the right decision, If I only had a few hours to tell u my story, it would stop your heart,deep down Im sure you know you dont want to be an addict, if your young please trust me, do not take it any further, it will only deliver you to directly to the gates of Hell. If I sound like Im crazy it is because I am, thanks Good Poem, Take care, God BLess

Very illustrative and understanding of human emotions. And gracefully written as well. Nicely done.
