Array ( [sid] => 81279 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Have You Ever? [time] => 2005-01-24 16:13:53 [hometext] => This began as a concept and I simply ran with it once I got started. Basically, we're not at all shallow. We go so much deeper than what people see each day. There's a lot more to each person out there than simply what they show. Criticism invited. [bodytext] => Have you ever felt
Like you’re all alone?
Have you ever felt
Like your heart is stone?
Have you ever felt?
I ask again.
Have you ever felt
Like you’ve reached the end?

Have you ever dreamt
That your life was more?
Have you ever dreamt
Of one you adore?
Have you ever dreamt?
I ask you now.
Have you ever dreamt
Of your final bow?

We are not hollow.
We go deep inside.
We are not shallow.
We simply hide.
Our life above we never live,
Until what’s below is what we give.

Have you ever felt
Like you’ve struck a chord?
Have you ever dreamt
That you’ve seen the Lord?
We are not hollow.
We go deep inside.
And when we live
This cannot hide.

Ok ... you got me with the note ... more that what shows outside ? Most definately. I like that the form is easy, the words not complex, but that the simplicity covers such a meaningful intent. Nicely written.

hrm, you almost crossed the line with the formatting. i cant handle repetition really, that is why you will hardly see it at all in my poems. but i didnt really even notice in this. quit writing so well so that mine look better, lol =]

I was at first going to say that I love the beginning, the questions and all but it didn't fit exactly with the third stanza, but then being the talented writer you are, you tied it in with the ending and made this poem amazing.
I especially like the "i ask again" "i ask you now" lines in the question stanzas. It adds a voice to your writing that is genuine and very beautiful.
This is an outstanding piece, and I loved it, as you could have guessed.

Great write Marc,

I am so glad that I read this! But it's taken me long enough to read all your work! lol anyways. . .wow! How you come up with these brilliant things to write about, I do not know but somehow you do and you always manage to make a masterpeice out of it! Spectacular! There isn't ONE thing that sticks out in this poem because it all flows so nicely together! But very nicely done Marc! Sorry I'm a little tongue tied in case you couldn't tell :-D ttyl
