[hometext] => Why did I stray from you?
[bodytext] => ,br>Lie here and wait In the end it's all I can do Through barred windows Clouds gather and rip through muddy skies Turn to my cell And stenches fill me And claw at my eyes What am I doing here? I wasn't created for this Not to be stuck in here Why did I lock my self in here Without a key? I've broken down all I want to be I'm sore and I can't feel a thing So numb, so cold, so afraid And this is all I am And I wonder who does hold a key There was one, once Who held the key And a time I could be strong in him I wasn't supposed to be here He told me, he promised me But i turned from it Didn't believe it Maybe it was true Maybe these years were wasted Maybe, but then... Maybe Get me out of here Get me out of here Get me out of here Get me out of here I'm horse My throat burns from Another eternity without A drop to soothe my thirst I'm pale and cracked My heart dried a long time ago There's not a lot to do When you are your own jail master Something creeps in here He talks to me Though I know he lies He tells me I am made to be here He used to be great, he says, He used to compose A melody or two But he asked for too much He was thrown away Like you were, he tells me But it was fine for me, he croons I'm a god now, god of this world he slithers away his legs removed And I sit and ask What am I doing in this place? Again and again for a thousand years I am trapped Maybe I was wrong Maybe I just need to say that He said it wouldn't work He told me last night But, he's lied before He's so good at it I could try it But why would my king listen now I tense up as the Anger and hurt fill me The only feelings I have left SET ME FREE! A silent tear rolls along my nose And is joined by more I curl up and the serpents in me writhe They feed on this They live on my pain At least they can thrive From my eternal death I was so wrong I know it know I was so stupid To turn away from him He said that if I said If I said I was wrong, he'd release me That it was only my bloody minded guilt That trapped me So, well Why not I feel so sorry I'll just tell him, he told me he'd always hear King, I am so sorry I have turned from you I was so wrong and so stupid I need you, I have always needed you What I tried to get from others I know I can only get from you If you free me I will serve you I ask only to be your slave I will wash in your house And tend to the pigs I just ask to eat And be with you again I sigh and As i sit there I realise that The promise made for all Was also made for me And I hear the lock click And realise who holds that key Who holds the keys of death Who died to descend And take them from The liar who haunts me Every night The door creaks, Lifetime old hinges Rust and creak But he opens it LIGHT fills the room I am startled I am afraid I want to cover my eyes but My arms won't respond Then I feel the warmth The power Love, it is love Pure love He has come back I crawl before him I cry, deep sobs I was so wrong I was so stupid I am SO SORRY He kneels down and a voice Like honey Like water A music of it's own As your father has told you For these I have died For you If there were no others in this prison I would still have done it I would still have borne it I would have done it again Until you were saved You don't need to worry about Being good enough You don't need to believe his Lies anymore He picks me up He hold me in his arms And then he looks Looks at me In the eyes, Me the dirtiest Most foul creature on The earth My heart is refillled My defiled soul is restored My profane mouth is reborn Yes. He looks at me And says You are my beloved one My joy and my prize I love you so much And how is it That I May look upon the face Of the Christ [comments] => 0 [counter] => 142 [topic] => 48 [informant] => somnium [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => EmotionalPoetry )

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. ©
