Array ( [sid] => 68717 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Empty Thoughts... Empty Dreams [time] => 2004-10-24 20:09:49 [hometext] => I know this is about suicide... but it's also about the emotion driving a person to do it... we have no idea when we say things to certain ppl how it affects them... this is just an example... comments welcomed... [bodytext] => She carries those empty thoughts inside her head
And those empty dreams...
Well... they're already dead
Crushed by the poisonious words
Spoken by some cruel... heartless person with no concern
For the mess her life had become
All the heartache and pain without love
Living... breathing... dying inside
With those empty thoughts and empty dreams
Still haunting her mind

Once... they may have meant something to her
Now... they're just useless... hollowed out schemes
Those empty thoughts and empty dreams
Never to be fully realized
Because someone was blind by their own shortsightedness
Couldn't recognize the signs of someone
Whose pain was eating them alive
Just left them in a pool of emotion to die

"Go ahead..." they said... " Just do it! And do the world a favor!"
I just don't agree with that philosophy
If that person was in that situation... is that what they would want...?
Someone badgering them to just do it
While they're pleading for help?
I don't think so...

She's reaching out as best she can
The only only way she knows how...
For someone to just take her by the hand
And rescue her from herself and her pain
For which she feels is driving her insane

She carries those empty thoughts inside her head
And those empty dreams...
Well... they're already dead
Cushed by those vile words spoken
And driving her toward the edge
To be lost forever... drowning in the great pond of life
A pool of her own blood...
Seeping through the cracks of time

All because... she carried those empty thoughts inside her head...
Because her life had treated her as though she were dead...
Meaning nothing to anyone... not even herself...
An empty dream is all she lived on...
Until it was gone...
Because someone.. couldn't show compassion for their fellow man
She died... by her own hand

Full of empty thoughts and empty dreams
That's how she lived her life it seemed... [comments] => 7 [counter] => 145 [topic] => 48 [informant] => kidpoet_213 [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 16 [ratings] => 4 [editpoem] => 0 [associated] => [topicname] => EmotionalPoetry )

Sad but written well.
I'm so proud of u for taking time out to help others. I'm sure u know there's not much more joy than knowing u helped a lost soul by jus taking time out to listen to their pain and write aabout it.
Couldn't find what I was looking for but this is even mo better.
Keep up the good work 'cause we all need someone that listens and can be felt in your heart.
People that tell such things as u called out in this write will have blood on their hands when.
So proud of u.
luv, huggs,
yo momma,
emy

this was achingly beautiful and written with
such tenderness. Words can never do this
poem justice or express the thoughts and
emotions this poem brought up.

This is such a sad write. I applaud you for speaking up on this situation. Sometimes, people don't take the time to realise how fragile life can be. Very good write indeed. *S* Cynthia
