[bodytext] => Blackness before me; till given light Screams awakening everyone in sight Strong beams striking my newborn eyes Looking for something I can recognize The words he spoke were loud and clear The longer he held me, the more I felt fear He handed me over to a beautiful woman with a smiling face Warmth from her eyes, slowed my heart's fast pace The man beside her, with eyes I knew Took me in his arms with love so true Now held in a firmer grip, I gazed into his eyes The deep blue before me I memorized After months, weeks, years and days I began to crawl and walk a little ways Mommy and Daddy were there by my side When I got hurt and broke down and cried By the time I was four I could tie my own shoe I loved to show off and show what I could do Just like the knots that were in my hair I knew my parents would always be there They were there when I would skin my knee Or when I couldn't get down from a high tree When my sisters and I would start to fight They would try to make everything all right Telling me they loved me and kissing me goodnight Driving out all my fears and my deepest fright Killing the monsters with an evil glare So I could sleep and know they aren't there They have always tried to keep me out of danger Even though they can express a lot of anger With them I feel I have nothing to fear For they will always be near As years went by, depression overwhelmed me I tried to look for the light that would set me free Feeling as if there were no where to turn Tears rolling down from my eyes that burned I thought no one could help or yet understand I believed I was alone in this sad run-down land A lot was tried, but non did succeed I was locked in hell, seeking to be freed You were my angels, whom showed me the light Just when I thought it was over, you gave me the strength to fight You pleaded for me not to corrupt myself with the demons inside To destroy the depression and let the happiness reside Behind closed doors, I let my feelings out I wanted to tear out my hair, and scream and shout I wanted everyone to suffer for what was happening to me If I couldn't be happy, I didn't want anyone to be Did God put me here so my tears would fill lakes? Was I just one of God's simple mistakes? Many questions unanswered, never to hear a reply Why was I here? When would I die? Trying differnt medicines and counselors to see what I needed After tons of money and effort; I finally succeeded With the help of you guys I never would have made it through I thank God for giving me the greatest parents anyone every knew.

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. ©
