[hometext] => This is part 2 of the poem I wrote called ...The Way I'd Go - read that poem to understand where this one came from.
[bodytext] => I've made it to the beach The sun is blistering hot I'm walking along the shoreline Have a care in the world I do not The water is surly calm So I started to swim afar I never did swim with Dolphins I never saw a salt water Gar I've made it as far as I could As my arms slow down, I am weak But then I thought of my children And their hearts I just had to keep As my legs started to give That's when I started to relive All the good memories I have had Ones of all my kids it makes me glad I recall holding each one at birth All five saved my life, it was no curse They're worth living for, even if nothing else I can feel it in my heart, something i've never felt With all my might I kicked even harder As I was drowning, farther and farther I realize I have made a big mistake I can't die here, my kids are at stake They deserve a father One who sticks around They are never a bother I just want them safe and sound Now I must swim faster And find my way back to shore I'm praying that my master Has not completely shut the door For now I know why I live It's because all 5 of my kids I must be here to see them grow If i'm dead i'll never know I made it back to shore Exhausted to say the least But now my knowledge is more I don't have to face the beast I can embrace this life Like DJ never could I could give up all my strife Like I promised him I would I'm thankful that swim didn't kill me As at that time I wished it had But now I'm happy to be breathing It no longer makes me sad [comments] => 1 [counter] => 288 [topic] => 36 [informant] => blknwht [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Suicide )

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. ©
