Array ( [sid] => 22549 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => Reflection [time] => 2003-08-31 15:05:00 [hometext] => One of my more optomistic poems, it's really importent to me. Please read it and tell me if you like it :) [bodytext] => I just wanted to mention
that i've grown up in one day
and that i'm not scared of the future now
but I won't let time slip away

that the girl that you once knew
hiding behind her own scars
putting up walls, making excuses
she is lost, she is gone now
in the abyss she was taken
and replaced with someone new
she has broken away from all the discrace
she has broken away from you

And i'd just like to mention
that I see through fakeness now
I see through all the lies and deceit
that people have brought apon me
before I must have missed it somehow
but yet I see the good in people
and though you may have brought me down
I don't care what you say anymore
people are good to have around

i'm more in touch with the world around me
though it may be hard to see
I could be in a room full of strangers
and be happy as can be
since I don't need friends around
all I really need is myself
everything that scared me makes me happy now
everything that made me happy is now something else

and my childhood seems wasteful
and my adolencence seems in vain
and I laugh in thinking back to when
I was happy when people even remembered my name
and my position in the world
was covered up with guilt
and you just added to my guilt back then
and made me feel like I should be killed
and you brought me much depression
so I felt love and saddness must go hand and hand
and it took me so long to realise, but now I finally understand

So I just wanted to mention
before I said goodbye
that ive realised nothing is ever over
so there is never a reason to cry
and people never really leave you
no matter what you say
time will pass, and you will change
and they will come back again one day
it's just an endless cycle
and I now take pride in that
I apreciate who I was once
since it got me where i'm at

what an awesome piece......so very strong....and declaring that strength in a sense of "so there" attitude.....
my childhood seems wasteful.....adolescence in vain......really well written......this should be read aloud to a room full of those that erred!!!!

I really enjoyed your poem
You've come a long way up.
Just keep climbing or soaring and never let anyone else ever bring you down.
This poem had a lot of thought put in to it.
I really apprecated it.
