[bodytext] => Found you there tomorrow Sitting by the briar patch The other side you teased me Sitting there smiling Tried to reach you Catching myself on every single thorn Cutting my temples And disable me to think At least it's not water And at least I won't sink Press on through the briar patch Thorns driving into me, deep Sitting there smiling Watching me weep Poke out my blue eyes Scratch me down my throat The thorns that rip at my flesh Cut deep to my chest and find my heart Clutching my tattered clothing And holding my bleeding head You there smiling Can't remember what you said Halfway through the briar patch My body covered in thorns Poison thoughts that taint me And your teasing smile Not really waiting for me Just sitting for a while Moments in time And I'd go through this patch You'll fall down one day Me, waiting there to catch Tear-filled eyes that scream for you And thorns that drive me so insane You sitting there smiling Anything but plain Begging for some comfort And praying for an end to the pain The thorns that catch at my clothing And that burn into my soft flesh You teasing me from the other side And sitting there smiling Get me out of the briar patch Escape me from the pain Almost through the briar patch Yet, we both know I'll do it again Finally reaching relief Falling into the grass Dead and ashes all around me You even left the briar patch Red flowing around me Thorns sticking from my hair Clothes torn to pieces And my regrets thrown everywhere Wait here by this briar patch Picking out my thorns For this pain never resides from me In the briar patch my heart mourns [comments] => 2 [counter] => 146 [topic] => 13 [informant] => Exodus-On-Life [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => DarkPoetry )

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. ©
