[bodytext] => Everything, it seems, is just the same I embrace the thought and excuse the pain Satisfied for the moment, but only a bit Eyes wide open in a room dimly lit With a sigh I remove the battery from the clock Ignore the door when angst starts to knock I escape to a corner that you can’t see Knowing that I must wait there patiently But not why I refuse to listen when reality calls I convince myself that I will not fall I stop the trembling when it again starts Regardless of the begging from my heart I won’t cry Smiling but only in halfhearted ways I tell myself that it’s just one more day Determined to numbly say goodbye It’s hard as anything I’ve ever tried I can't deny Making up stories to pass the time In the dark of night, I walk the line Creating reasons in a warped mind Thinking that they are the right kind To then apply Believing logic can overcome love Hoping reason will give hurt a shove I go about rationalizing you away Back into the past, away from today Well, I try With every ounce of hidden strength I carry on, going to great lengths I try to break free from your hold But in the end, if truth be told It goes awry And my thoughts return again to you For it seems no matter what I do I am not strong, nor am I wise And when I tell you that I’ve tried It’s just a lie [comments] => 9 [counter] => 313 [topic] => 61 [informant] => Silent-No-More [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 28 [ratings] => 6 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => selfstruggles )

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. ©
