[bodytext] => You think you know me, standing there, at the outer edge of my aura Whispering things about my life, Whispering things about me Beyond boundaries you can not cross, you can not see....If you did...you would never believe. Where I hold my secrets in the depths of my fear Tomorrow's breath is uncertain and you could always disappear. Bound, indeed, and inside out...Nobody could understand or let me out. A backward reflection is what you believe, it's warped and the laughs are not a true picture of me. The door closing on a seemingly average day, is only the beginning of the hell that I bleed. Those things you couldn't possibly know, but assume Random, foolish thoughts on a lazy afternoon... You lean in closer, waiting for my insides to come out... All of my contempt and doubt, it builds up in the night Under pressure, knowing it soon will erupt in selfish delight It takes on a life of its own, waiting for me to give in Patiently it waits, tempting an explosion Each day that passes becomes a little more clear The fire is getting closer and I know that day is near Crossing the line, a bridge if I must, I shatter that reflection and return it to dust The shadow that followed me around for so long, waiting smiled in relief for no more anticipating Together relaxed and takes a breath After all that waiting, it's put to rest And you look at me like you always knew Still whispering, But you no longer assume. With my eyes, I apologize, and you reply "Me, too" [comments] => 4 [counter] => 226 [topic] => 48 [informant] => Red_October [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [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. ©
