[hometext] => I just wrote this poem tonite about a very very hard time in my life. This poem has been waiting 10 months to burst out of me and be heard and read. Enjoy!!!
[bodytext] => Time Will Tell Long days and longer nights, harder in the dark than it is in the light Tired of the hurt, exhausted with pain /Always the one who takes all the blame I didnt do this, or I should have said that/ I should have spoken my mind, gone up to bat I wanted to, I tried/ To tell the truth, and stop the lies The words stuck in my throat, would not break free / So it all stayed inside, this terrible agony Eating away at who I was/ Making it hard for me to trust Who to believe and what to do/ They hated each other and neither knew That by fighting and hating, they were ripping me apart/ Torn in two directions and not knowing where to start I wish they would have seen/ Exactly what their war was doing to me They hated each other and neither could understand/ how I could love them both, as lovers and friends Torn between past and present/ It had the power to kill me and I nearly let it I always thought, if I could get them to see... how great they both were, that's all they'd need/ But neither could believe cause what they saw was me I was the prize and niether would let go/ Desperate times call for desperate measures, and they both sunk low Taking jabs and pulling tricks/ bad talking each other and laying bricks Putting up a wall too high for me to climb/ And as I fell, I thought I would die I lost them both, and myself too/ Trying to please everyone, but now I didnt know who Who was this girl, that I'd become/ Stopped saying what she felt, who wasnt anyone I loved them both, but didnt take the time/ To find out the reason, to figure out the rhyme Instead of taking a step back/ I tried to move forward and got off my track Had my heart handed to me, not knowing what it was/ Cause what I had given came back in pieces, it was mush I took it in my hands, and layed it down/ I thought for awhile, in my tears, I would drown I struggled to my feet, and nearly collapsed/ I was proud of myself cause little time lapsed I made a decision, to find myself again/ before I tried to be with another man And things are getting better and I am working hard/ To get back to being me, and holding up my gaurd And now I know that when I am ready/ My soulmate will come, our love steady And, until that time/ Im gonna be happy with my life being mine.
