[hometext] => * This starts off dark and lonely, but ends with a beautiful nugget of hope. My hope is that this poem will speak to you because even during your lowest moments there is still hope and you can be set free from your depression if you turn to Jesus. *
[bodytext] => I thrash upon this bed of broken dreams Left to sleep with the damned (at home) Staring at this rusted razor Rusted with insecurity and self-hate My mottled gaze distorted Like the fear that carves me into bloody strips My teeth have been bashed in my rocks Left only to grin out of broken, bleeding gums Only pain can dampen these feelings And I pray to no longer feel My eyes are bloodshot From having wept themselves dry My fingers scraped raw From having scratched at these walls My mind no longer capable of coherent thought Only to devise mad, ill-conceived plans Which leads to bleeding wrists and hiding Broken dreams bleed from cracked skin, But I hardly notice, consumed with holding My last vestiges of sanity together As the blackest of nightmares grips me, But at my lowest You rescued me from despair You restored my dreams And You fulfilled Your promises You healed my wounds And showed me Your scars And told me You already paid the price You took away my pain and fear And replaced it with love and joy You tore down my walls And welcomed me home With a smile and open arms [comments] => 7 [counter] => 146 [topic] => 48 [informant] => bobotheclown [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 15 [ratings] => 3 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => EmotionalPoetry )

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. ©
