[hometext] => I'm trying to see things from a better point of view; to find renewed hope; to see a reason for the not so pleasant things in life. Maybe? What do you think?
[bodytext] => My heart is full of sadness Or maybe its dread I feel I sense I’m drowning in darkness For my fate it does seal How can I go from bad to good? From hour to hour I change My emotions can’t be understood For they never stay the same Often I feel I’m over stressed Like I’m about to burst Of course, then I get depressed Oh for peace, how I thirst When you have no control Over the circumstance you’re in How can you expect to keep your soul Free from the darkness and sin? Maybe you should take a step back So the view you can better see Hopefully, you can find the right track Or at least a lighted street When you don’t like the circumstance And all you do is ***** It’s time to decide to take a chance Your old ways, its time to ditch My advice seems simple enough When it applies to you and not me It’s not that I’m made of different stuff I just don’t know how to be free Help for you, I’m happy to give But for me I don’t know how All I really want is to live Through life’s obstacles, I want to plow Why can’t it be as easy as it sounds? But where would be the challenge in that? If all the easy paths were found What would we do but sit and chat? We would always be bored to tears And lose interest in everything Hopeless we’d be, I fear And we’d never have reason to sing All of our motivations in life Our goals we wish to obtain Even when you engage hordes of strife Make existence worth the pain If you can turn things around See from a different point of view Many people you may astound When your heart’s no longer torn in two [comments] => 0 [counter] => 194 [topic] => 21 [informant] => ToriVeigh [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Lifepoems )
