Array ( [sid] => 84333 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Emptiness [time] => 2005-02-14 00:25:53 [hometext] => As life goes on, we are pressured with more stress. I am no exception. No one is. But, my friends, we must find a way to control that stress before we kill ourselves. [bodytext] => Times change as time goes by
I see that now as my life goes on
There is something I must do before I die
I hope I do that in this song all alone

Beaten down by emotions
While showing no devotion
We drift apart
What we be left after we depart?

I’ve tried to change so many times
But with each passing day
It brings out brand new rhymes
And it seems to pull me away

Maybe if we stick together
We can accomplish something for the greater good

I can’t help the way people are
Should I get new friends?
Or should I change who I am?

But I’ll always hurt inside
And I’ll always feel this pain
Until the day I die

If I change I’ll be the only one
I’ll be all alone
But this is life
This is the lie
Welcome to reality
Nothing is ever as it seems

I guess it’s all down hill
I guess it’s back to the pill
I sure hope wounds will heal
Can some one help me figure out this life?
What’s wrong with me inside?
Oh God, I’m dead inside

Creator, what is my purpose? [comments] => 3 [counter] => 168 [topic] => 48 [informant] => Bones [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 4 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => EmotionalPoetry )

I too can relate to your poem and have written myself one with the same title you used for yours, "Emptiness." Please give mine a read as I have with yours and post a comment. I especially like the 2nd and 3rd verses.

that's all we can change is ourselves, isn't it?
