Array ( [sid] => 72283 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => People Do Care [time] => 2004-11-19 15:19:01 [hometext] => Believe in yourself, Believe in others, Believe in love and believe in GOD - YOU ARE NOT ALONE [bodytext] => So many poems here I've read have touched by heart. So much sadness, it's hard to find the words to comment, so I wrote this poem. Just believe me--People do care.

You hide the scars you inflicted,
It was a bittersweet sort of pain.
You smile on the outside,
Masking your hurt and shame.
But your feelings are known,
We see them in your eyes
But you only know
How many tears you have cried.

Your feeling and hurts are
Written loud and clear
Poetry expresses all
Your anguish and fears.
You are not a faceless entity
A shadow ignored, not there.
You are a living, breathing work of art
You’ll find out—others do care.

Where can you find the courage
To face another day?
When can you finally believe
The kind words others say?
How can you change, let
Depression leave your mind?
Can you love yourself again
And leave all the pain behind?

Yes, you do have the courage!
Trouble is not here to stay.
Step outside yourself
And face a new day.
The pain you feel today,
Will be history tomorrow,
The future can be full of happiness
And a lot less of sorrow.

Your past is behind you,
You have nothing to be sorry about
Just let the love enter your heart
And you have already made your new start!

People Do Care

Topic: selfstruggles



So many poems here I've read have touched by heart. So much sadness, it's hard to find the words to comment, so I wrote this poem. Just believe me--People do care.

You hide the scars you inflicted,
It was a bittersweet sort of pain.
You smile on the outside,
Masking your hurt and shame.
But your feelings are known,
We see them in your eyes
But you only know
How many tears you have cried.

Your feeling and hurts are
Written loud and clear
Poetry expresses all
Your anguish and fears.
You are not a faceless entity
A shadow ignored, not there.
You are a living, breathing work of art
You’ll find out—others do care.

Where can you find the courage
To face another day?
When can you finally believe
The kind words others say?
How can you change, let
Depression leave your mind?
Can you love yourself again
And leave all the pain behind?

Yes, you do have the courage!
Trouble is not here to stay.
Step outside yourself
And face a new day.
The pain you feel today,
Will be history tomorrow,
The future can be full of happiness
And a lot less of sorrow.

Your past is behind you,
You have nothing to be sorry about
Just let the love enter your heart
And you have already made your new start!
