[hometext] => How do you tell somebody something that they don't want to care about because it hurts them... but that you feel they need to know?
[bodytext] => Don't you see what's in her eyes? Do you ever look when she's not smiling? And don't you know why she cries? Do you ever listen when she's not lying? She looks out the window and thinks of yesterday She wanders, going nowhere, but she'll always stay She breathes the air and doesn't know why she's alive But when she reaches your heart, she knows she's arrived Don't you even try to see Past what she shows to who she really is? Would you really rather flee The ghost than open your eyes to what lives? She hides within herself, she hides from you, from life But she knows she won't and cannot hide from the knife And if it hurts you, she won't say a word of it Alone with all her scars, in silence she will sit Why don't you see what you do? Don't you think about the anger you feed her? How is it you never knew Every time she hurts she cuts a little deeper? She takes some pills 'cause she can't take it anymore She screams at you until she's crying on the floor She cuts and she bleeds and it makes it go away She wants to tell you but doesn't know what to say You're living in denial She'll never tell you if you don't want to care Throw away that worn-out smile Listen, love her, and no matter what, be there She takes a chance, bares her soul, uncovers evey scar Shows you every secret she's kept hidden in her heart Her hands shake as she wonders if you'll turn away Takes a deep breath and waits for what you have to say [comments] => 6 [counter] => 293 [topic] => 32 [informant] => MoonlitAngel [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 9 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => SadPoetry )

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. ©
