[hometext] => I was lucky enough to get this poem and another published in my school's literary magazine. Enjoy.
[bodytext] => Often I woner Pondering life Thinking of death To fall to the knife Why were we born To keep the species alive Making us mere animals Striving to survive Nothing offers more Nothing can give reasons I need to know why We fade like the seasons If only one question I'd ask it anyway I need to know why Good or bad either way Mourners forsake it Parents rejoice I lack either feeling Thinking only of the point What does life offer But small simple pleasures Only few and far between I could do much better I withdraw from the world A little more each day Everyone's so happy Knowing they'll die in some way It seems like to much To know one's own fate Even though vague I know what's at stake My life for brief moments Of feelings of sorrow Feelings of happiness Reoccuring tomorrow Onward I go Straining against the grain With what little I know And so little to gain [comments] => 4 [counter] => 285 [topic] => 36 [informant] => Darien [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 4 [ratings] => 1 [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. ©
