[bodytext] => Like the flakes of falling snow, Melting in the street... Like a helpless, starving doe, Ripped from its mother's teat... Like a lamb trapped beneath The clutches of a bear... Like a tiger, without teeth, Deprived beyond compare... Like the fish, within the sea, Eaten by the shark... There's no one here, guiding me, Alone and in the dark. Like the girl that simply drowned For slipping down a well... Like a mute, who makes no sound, None heard me when I fell... Like the boy who cannot speak For all their cruel remarks... That's what it's like to be a freak, Exiled to the dark. Like the silence, never broken... Like my empty soul... Like the lies that you have spoken, Which grow beyond control... Like a moose, Helplessly stuck Beneath a fallen tree, I have no life, I have no luck, I never will break free. Like a man without a name, Who no one ever knew... Never will I be the same, No matter what I do. Like a child that cannot see, Abandoned in a park... That's what it's like, being me, Forgotten in the dark. Like the man the world despised Just because it could, I always will be criticized, But never understood. Like a wounded, dying oak, Stripped of all its bark, My life is but an empty joke, Forsaken in the dark.

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. ©
