[hometext] => I used to like chatting to people on the net.I used to feel it was a place to make friendships.I never though that was asking too much but it seems it is
[bodytext] => This cancer spreads a little more each day A foul plague that sweeps across virtual land What sickness feeds lies and false identities? Today I am your closest friend Tomorrow just passing stranger Deceptive this paradise, no more than a trap The Web that binds us is truly worldwide Some discard feelings, shed their snake skin Life takes on new form, notes to rehearse As actors and actresses take to the stage Where else could you live a year in a moment? Give undying love to the face of a stranger Cry crocodile tears just to seek attention You play the game where there are no rules Where the only things broken are foolish hearts Forgive me if I look upon you with pre-programmed doubt My dream has been tarnished too many times I see cultures united on common ground Lips that speak of honour and truth But eyes seen clearly announce the masquerade Is it naivety or hope that brings me back ? To walk through the this field of barren souls How many friendships have I planted here ? A seed of faith sewn in someone new I have watched so many wither and die This mask you wear to hide your inner self Your tool to help you play the game For me there is no defence No weapons with which to fight I fear soon I will die, from this virtual cancer [comments] => 4 [counter] => 175 [topic] => 6 [informant] => puppy_dog_eyes [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => AngryPoetry )

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. ©
