[hometext] => I don't remember why I wrote this today. I guess I was just really down and thinking too much. Please comment.
[bodytext] => Take these worn out sneakers With the blue stars on their sides Their faded red fabric Will take you for a ride You say you always wondered How it would feel to be like me You only wanted to make conversation But I’ll show you what I mean My father started drinking When I had just turned three Him beating on my mother Made me lose her at thirteen He finally got arrested Just this past year He’s never getting out But the past keeps me in fear My older brother was sixteen When he decided to go He pulled the trigger and left a note Claiming his life went by too slow My little sister has no mommy To show her wrong from right Instead of our mother I sing her to sleep at night My daughter, Rainy just learned to walk With her rosy pink cheeks askew Because her daddy ran off I alone teach her everything new It’s not all fun and games for me My life raped and taken away Maybe after this little trip You’ll take back everything you say So tie up the laces And hold on tight You’re about to take my place In my horrible lonely life [comments] => 3 [counter] => 199 [topic] => 32 [informant] => acidicblasphemy [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 3 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => SadPoetry )

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. ©
