[hometext] => you want life... i want death... who will win???
[bodytext] => You care about me It’s hard not to see You are determined to make me smile Even if it takes awhile You won’t give up without a fight You won’t let me leave your sight Always there Always with a care I turn away To this day I look past you Try to run, too You grab me, though And give a pull Won’t let me run Won’t let me feel shunned You’ll pull a joke Pretend to choke Just to get me to laugh And relieve me of stress But, then, when I grow silent You ask why I’m quiet When my poems I read You are next to me and plead That you can read my poems I say to leave me alone But now you are next to me, Begging to see I say no and close the book You ask why you can’t look I just walk away in silence Some call it silent violence You are at my side again Telling me to use my brain And tell you what’s wrong Not to go off and fight alone I glare at you, but I won’t know why You show so much care, I want to cry You care so much You always have the touch But why you stay around, And how you found Out about me, I’ll never know Why you don’t go, I understand not You care a lot Stand next to me all the time Trying to find Out what’s behind my pain Wondering why I let myself drain Of my own life Or why I try to end the strife Want to know why I don’t fight You tell me it’s not right I say not a word Still move forward You grab my wrist I clench my fists You wrap your arm around my shoulder You are my comforter Whenever I want to die You come and make me want to cry You tell me that I can trust you But I trusted others, too And they hurt me and got me here They let me shed tears I know you just care And try to be fair I know if you if you could, That you would Fight my life for me Destroy all my enemies But you can’t You know that It’s only my right To fight And I’ve given it up That right I have dropped You can try to catch it But, just understand this I reach for death You drag me towards life I try to push you away But you have a way To keep me with you This is all true You won’t let me grab the knife Refuse to let me end my life I try to run And reach for the gun But, you pull me back Try to keep me on track I reach for death You drag me towards life You vs. me Life vs. death I reach for death You drag me towards life [comments] => 1 [counter] => 163 [topic] => 48 [informant] => sprinter27 [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 4 [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. ©
