[hometext] => These words within are a tribute to my own private living Hell!! A life lived for NOTHING!!!
[bodytext] => I thought I was doing fine...
Writing my little poems... from the inspiration... in this life
The people and places that move me to write
Drifting along singing my own song...
Riding on my own silent wind...
Thought I was touching other people's lives with my words so carefully written...
Then again...
WHAT DO I KNOW?
I just bottle up inside... all my worries... all my fears
All my pain... all my misery... all the tears
All the empty promises ever made to me...
All the broken dreams... I ever dreamed
Then I sift through them... bit by bit... little by little... piece by piece
Throwing aside bits and pieces of my life
Inserting them into my poems for other's to read
Actually believing... maybe someday... a great poet I can be
Writing my little poems... calling it poetry
I started reading other people's poetry
This got me to thinking...
Maybe I won't measure up?
Maybe I'm not good enough?
Maybe my words... my thoughts... aren't to their way of thinking?
Do I really feel them with my heart?
Do I really live them in my life?
I want to do more with my life than just exist...
I want to do something GREAT... be a somebody!
I want to write something... that nobody's ever written before...
But I'm not great...
I'm just a nothing from Indiana...
A nobody special... a farm kid... who's had a great notion all of her life...
To be a somebody...
To do something GREAT!
But if I can't be a somebody... do something GREAT...
Then there's no sense in ever writing poetry again!
What a crock? What a phoney... I am?
Thinking I could be a great poet...
Here I am guys... right where I belong...
Deep with in my own twisted thoughts...
Welcome to the Palace Depression...
Where NOTHING is NOTHING!!!
Clap with me...
HERE"S TO NOTHING FELLAS!!!
Here's to NOTHING!!!

Oh me girl,
didn't mean to be neglecting u. I jus get so busy here.
U r a great writer and I'm happy u got that out of your system!
Now no more talk like that as u r somebody 'cause God don't make no junk.
I think about u much guess I shopuld put more of my thoughts on paper. Sorry.
I've been writing nearly 25 years but there's been little money in it but the writing taouches so many folks all over the globe. U never know who u've touched. Jus because they don't comment it doesn't mean a thing 'cause they r read by many. It's the silent ones that u help the most.
Hang in there girl and send me an e-maikl or private message to let me know what's going on.
I luv u more than u know.
Take it easy on yourself.
Yo other Momma,
emy
Bye the way this is great writing even tho sad. |

| your poetry isnt for anyone to understand or relate to. . . your poetry is for you. . . .if people dont like your poetry. . .. they can take it somewhere by opening the page with your write in it they are pretty much agreeing to your views on anything you choose to tread apon at that time. .. . your poetry is great... .if you think otherwise read some of mine. .. i think only about four out of all i have posted on here were worth reading.. . do i care? no lol i write them cause i choose to share MY views.. .. i can care less if i can stand to any other poets.. . . everyone thinks differently while your poem may be the most wonderful write i have ever seen to another it may be a "crock" . .. . no one has any say in what you write and whether its good or not. .. . seriously read my poems. .. and laugh im all for it. .. you will see what sucking is about. .. i am the king lol . . .. but in all reality i think they are good. .. . who cares what others think. .. those are your feeling expressed.. . .and honestly i think it was a great write. .. |

Wow, that's the exact same feeling i've had so many times. I can both appreciate this, and relate to it on a personal level. For what it's worth, take solace in the fact that at least one other person out there knows what you are feeling. But please--don't let it deter you from writing. Believe in yourself, in your talent (which is very real).
Truly,
-V.S. |
