[bodytext] => An endless search leading to somewhere dark A journey of the heart, no flame to spark Down this hole of repitition and sorrow Hoping to find a better tomorrow Looks like I'm back right where I started A glimpse of hope has long been departed Seeing in my mind exactly what I want Yet blinded by this space who chose me to haunt I look up and wonder how I got this far down I look up and wonder why there' s no one around He's got hold of my thoughts, he's not letting go Keeping his grip, keeping me below Day after day, sinking deeper each time I never knew living could be such a crime Longing to hide, sitting in shame I can't believe this is who I became A person without eyes or a mind of his own I'll spend the rest of my days lost, confused, and alone Don't try to help, for that opportunity is passed Before stepping in, I guess I should've asked But the moment I set foot, it sucked me in too fast I lost my grip, I lost my past The present and future are still at hand But not looking forward to the hardcore demands This place requires much more than I can offer My tough bred skin continues to get softer From every circle down this staircase of hate My life will all too soon degrate But there's no way out, I guess this'll be my plan Give me your best shot, I'll take it like a man [comments] => 1 [counter] => 166 [topic] => 25 [informant] => kaitee [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 4 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => MiscPoems )
