Array ( [sid] => 156615 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Sail Boat [time] => 2010-01-09 22:53:37 [hometext] => This poem isnt really anything special, its simple. Just how I want it to sound. The meaning is kind of straight-forward (a love that was no good to me), although hidden at the same time. Enjoy ^.^ [bodytext] => I was a sail boat,
masts open, I took to the sea.
Floating, living, breathing, existing,
until you came and brought a change to me.

You were an anchor.
As hard as I tried to float on,
you were constantly there
dragging me down.
I lost all control;
no longer was I floating for myself,
but sinking for you.
Down and down I was pulled,
unable to escape-

Until I cut that anchor,
and put you back into place.
With you gone, a weight had lifted,
and I was once again free.

I am a sail boat.
Floating, living, breathing, existing.
Masts open, taking on the sea. [comments] => 2 [counter] => 350 [topic] => 22 [informant] => solace_atlast [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 9 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => LostLove )

Sail Boat

I was a sail boat,
masts open, I took to the sea.
Floating, living, breathing, existing,
until you came and brought a change to me.

You were an anchor.
As hard as I tried to float on,
you were constantly there
dragging me down.
I lost all control;
no longer was I floating for myself,
but sinking for you.
Down and down I was pulled,
unable to escape-

Until I cut that anchor,
and put you back into place.
With you gone, a weight had lifted,
and I was once again free.

I am a sail boat.
Floating, living, breathing, existing.
Masts open, taking on the sea.

Hi,

This is a little gem of a poem. Perhaps you should
use your pen-name as its title? Seems fitting.
