Array ( [sid] => 109509 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => i've got soul, but im no soldier [time] => 2005-11-11 03:45:19 [hometext] => i dont know why i picked that for a title it just came to me, what ya think? i really would like comments on this one [bodytext] => here i sit beside my lonely midnight lake
just me and the soft snowy flakes...
the only thing i can hear in my lonely night
is the wind wispering "everything will be alright"
but what if i want better than ok or just fine...
maybe i wont accept almost or maybe next time...

but fighting the tears wont make them stop
in the end i'm still alone...
like so many times before
and i still have nothing to show

except the bloody pain
that damn repetitive pain
screaming inside
pushing my real self aside

and im thinking of just walking away
just slip away with the night
disapear along with yesterday
and slip past this emotinal fistfight

im tired of heartach and sorrow
but ill stay if u say its worth while
and promise me i can still see you tomorrow
and by chance you will flash me one of those amazing smiles....
and in that instant u can look into my eyes
and see that you are my hearts one true prize [comments] => 4 [counter] => 547 [topic] => 48 [informant] => socialmisfit [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 10 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 0 [associated] => [topicname] => EmotionalPoetry )

Typos....tsk tsk ; )

I must say, I love that ending! What a sucker I am for the mushy stuff...lol! Please don't 'disappear', how will I read your nice writes then?? I happen to really like the title, and the emotional significance it has in general, let alone to this write...Good job portraying your emotions here...Keep it up!
