[hometext] => This poem is dedicated to a friend, CJ! I'll always love you!
[bodytext] => Here I sit... just gazing at... Some sad looking roses setting on my desk They' ve wilted and died... Their life's blood has been drained away I sit here thinking... about you, my friend I just want you to know that I care and love you so But what you do to yourself Makes my heart feel sick... When my heart cries for you The hot tears flow I know that you don't mean to do it... But you do it again and again and again... An unbroken cycle without end I don't know what happens... What you feel inside When people start yelling at you... It seems you let your anger get the best of you Then you run home and hide... You do it without thinking it through... Holding things deep inside... You cut yourself... In hopes of letting the blood flow To drain your pain away This is not the answer, my friend I know there is so much going on in your life The world seems like it's spinning out of control And this merry- go- round.... it won't stop It won't even roll I know it seems addicting But that's just a lie A lie to deny yourself the joy God gives freely from His own heart to yours Hurting yourself is not going to make anyone feel better Least of all you 'Cause when you're hurting yourself ... you're hurting me too Open your eyes and take a long hard look at those scars you've left They're not trophies of triumphant... They're stripes of pain and anguish You can't seem to get passed Cutting away the pain... What good does it do? You just punish yourself and those who love you... Your problems are still there when you're through Still staring you in the face Though you say you forget about them As you watch your life's blood drain away Oh, my friend, you need help... You're more than just a little bit confused... And I'm more than just a little bit upset As my heart grieves for you... Because when you try to cut away the pain... Remember this... you're cutting me too!! You're in my heart... that's where I carry you... And you're in my prayers.... 'cause God loves you too!

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. ©
