[hometext] => I'm just having not only a bad day... with this pain... but a bad life... lol
[bodytext] => Peaceful... relaxing... Just sitting here on a dock of the lake Thinking about life... All I've been through and survived Just sitting here watching the waves ripple to the shoreline... Lapping... at the rocky edge... the driftwood... lying there entwined with the mud I listen to the distant calls of the geese... skirting on the water... frolicking about... As the warm winds softly blow... And watch the giant white clouds like fluffy marshmellows... Being pushed through the blue sky by God's own hand As I sit here... I feel the pain... The pain of life... all my 37 years... Not only the emotinal pain... burning deep inside... But the physical pain... the wracks my body each and everyday... The pain... that most people don't know or even care about... The pain... that causes me to find it hard... To even get out of bed... Or even to negotiate the stairs... The pain... of just walking... step after step... I find it hard anymore... to do the things I want to do The pain... of just writing this... picking up the pen ... or even tapping the letters of this keyboard... My fingers start to cramp The pain... at times.. a friend... Other times... a curse... The pain... that eats a way at you from inside... Until you can't take it anymore and want to hide... But where? Where do you hide from it? It just tracks you down... and continues it's nagging ways... Haunting you... for all of your days Ah... the pain... your enemy or your friend? On one hand... it's the devil's handiwork... On the other hand... it's the body's way of telling you... you're still alive... I don't know anymore... I've lived with it all for so long... it's become a part of me... Being stiiff and sore... it's nothing new... every joint aches... and gets too stiff to move... When I want to do things and can't... That other's take for granted... makes me a little bit sad and teary eyed... Livin' with this dad gum pain inside The pain... it's involved in every aspect of my life... You know... it's scary sometimes... When your arms and legs go so numb and you can barely move... And you're all alone somewhere...or driving along alone... I just grit my teeth and try to go on... The pain has made me feel... like I'm a 37 year old... going on 90... Or an old woman in her 30's... All due to... the pain....

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. ©
