Array ( [sid] => 171413 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => THE ONCE POETIC HERO [time] => 2012-03-20 10:55:02 [hometext] => I'm not sure where in me this came from... or why... it's just a poem though... if an apology is in order, then I'll do that now.. sorry??? [bodytext] => so they say that i have gone insane
yes, i am known to be the crazy one
i am a walking, talking, psychopath
i am a devil with a double tongue
i am a snake, i am a viper
yes, i am a poisonous sort
i am a villian with bad intentions
i hold all in contempt of my liar's court
i have fallen far from what was grace
i am the once poetic hero
whose boyhood dreams have now come lost
i have become their pathetic zero
this doesn't make you better than me
i am not blinded by your idiot's wool
i do know that after we bury this day
you will be made to play the fool
you fear me at this very moment
as you have watched my downward spiral
i can identify it in your coward's eyes
so no need for a useless denial
my life of late has been a futile joke
it seems like nothing pleases more than anger
now i feel that something stalks my troubled soul
and sadly, this once poetic hero must surrender to this danger...

I liked your poem - you get a really good sense of anger and of not wanting to surrender to pity, but just to hurt. not because it's the other persons fault, but just because there is nothing else you can do. it's just a blinding and completely overpowering feeling.

Thank you for sharing, I hope writing the poem made you feel relieved!
