[hometext] => Do we all read the same poems, or are the poems merely a window into ourselves? I am interested to see what my poem may, or may not, mean to you.
[bodytext] => ... I am lost I am somewhere I am not suppose to be. There are paths all around me; some I know, and yet I can not walk in those directions, some I want to know, but there may be no way back, and some... some I can not see at all and it is those that I fear more than anything . I am lost... I am afraid I am sitting and waiting, unable to move I feel it passing me by, I see it moving forward. I am running out of time, and still I sit. I have to catch up, only death awaits me here, but which path is mine, which one is for me I know it is fear that holds me still, and yet... I wait. I am lost I am afraid... I am alone Only I can save myself, I am unable to be found. I hear them calling: familiar voices, telling me that they miss me and that they want me to come back; beautiful, sweet voices, telling me half truths, and offering me, what might be, forbidden fruits; and voices that I can not make out at all, no matter how hard I try to hear them. I am lost I am afraid I am alone... I am dying I don't know how this happend, but I feel it inside. the longer I wait, the further I slip, and the further I slip, the more I feel compelled to wait. The sky grows dark, the leafs begin to fall, the wind moans, and with it the voices start to fade. I hate those voices, but I know that one, and only one, has with it... my salvation. ...
