Unknown Pathways
Written on: June 18, 2009
 
Lost in a savage forest
Darkness all around me
No familiar sounds to be heard only the sounds of the strangeness.
Rough passages lying ahead
Many twists and turns
Many forks in the road
Confusion all around me
Where do I go?
Will I ever get where I need to be?
Who awaits me there?
Will I be lost forever?
Weary feet and exhausted mind, continue to hold onto hope.
Looking toward finding reality
There is no turning back
My mind says hold strong and continue along
I struggle to survive alone here
Fighting to go on and find my way
Falling among the branches and debris on these passages
Always wondering where each will lead me
Hoping that one brings me back
My heart retains hope while my body is struggling with negativity
Can I give up?
Will I give up
Can I continue without knowing where my destination lies?
A voice in my head pleads for me to survive and go on
My body sick and ery, struggles through all the pain
I know not how long I can last here.
Will I ever get home?
 
 
 
Why? Nothing
Written in: March 1, 2005
 
Cries of loved ones filling the air.
The tears causing rivers of pain.
Hearts shattering into a million pieces over and over.
A longing for this unsufferable agony to end but at the   
     hands of whom?
Whom will relieve this strife?
Nothing can console those loved ones.
Nothing can stop their tears.
Nothing can stop their hearts from shattering.
Nothing can be done.
How painful it is to say that and realize it for the truth of 
     reality.
Wanting and wishing to take all this pain into you and relieving the ones you love.
Why can I not do that?
Why do those I love must suffer greatly when someone is willing to bear it all and save them the agony?
Why can nothing be done?
Why? Why? Why?
Why is the answer always nothing?
 
 
 
 
 
Changing
Written in: 2004
 
Why am I being persecuted for changing?
In this world/society today, change is inevitable.
Our world is constantly changing just as those living in it.
For me to grow into a person, the one I am meant to be, changes
     become the norm.
The U.S. changed in various ways throughout time, advancing itself.
Our nation is growing for the better and flourishing into it's identity.
I am growing and flourishing into mine, so again I ask Why Am I
     Being Persecuted For Changing?
I cannot be forever sweet, happy, etc...
Only if I am lucky my strength will not let my environment destroy my
     better qualities.
But my change is a product of my life search, I will get to who I am to
     be.
The change will be good, so don't put it down.
 
 
 
 
Can I?
Written in: November 2002
 
Can I ever make someone truly happy?
My flaws flow through my veins.
Throughout this imperfect body.
My personality is good but lacks something as always.
All I do is disappoint you when I'm only being me and trying to make
         you happy.
I wish I was perfect for you.
Make you happy forever.
Have you fall in love with ME.
The person I am flaws and all.
 
 
 
 
Afraid
Written in: November 2002
 
I fear those beautiful eyes not being able to see me as I first was or in
         a loving way.
I fear those lips never again pressing against mine.
I fear those arms that I feel so safe in, will never again be there to
         hold me tight.
I fear those skillful hands, I will never hold again and feel them touch
         my body gently.
I fear never hearing your handsome voice that brought secrets to life,
         smiles, tears, and laughter.
I fear losing that personality of yours, so sweet, understanding,
         caring, and uniquely perfect to me.
I fear that when I lay my head on your chest I’ll never hear you heart
         beat fast for me.
I fear you regretting what we had together or even starting it.
Most of all I fear losing the one I come to love.
 
 
 
 
My Shadow
Written on: September 9, 2002
 
Everyone in their lifetime experiences bad incidents at least once,  
         that bring pain and suffering. 
My incidents have become my shadow.
As I grow older, it grows in numbers.
Wherever I go, it is sure to follow.
Haunted of he visions of these incidents pass before my eyes, 
         causing me to re-live each painful moment.
New tears form remembering all the ones before.
My heart, as well as my body, have suffered in unmeasurable ways.
Pretending to be strong and hide my past and fearing so much...
         It happening again
         The pain returning
         Losing those I care for
         Losing my identity
         Being alone forever
How will people view me knowing what’s happened?
Will they not want anything to do with me?
Why am I in this position?
What did I do to deserve what I’ve experienced?
Why should I be viewed differently for someone else’s crimes?
So many questions like those enter my mind.
No answers to any...only more questions
A tortured soul still lays hidden, aching to be released from this 
         anguish.
Playing a great role to hide my true feelings of pain.
My life has changed.
I’ve grown, matured and come to deal.
But alas, that doesn’t mean the last of my pain and suffering for my
         heart is broken and mangled.
My past is my shadow and always will be.
My heart will never be whole for the shadow continues to grow,
         because bad luck follows this tortured soul.
 
 
 
 
Fear
Written on: November 2002
 
I fear not being all you need me to be.
I fear disappointing you.
I fear making you mad and upset
I fear you not trusting me.
I fear you not wanting me or to be with me.
I fear you finding someone new and interesting
Most of all I fear losing you.
 
 
 
 
Emptiness
 
World seems so silent, so lonely.
My heart searching
Heart in pain
Wishing to have company
Life lacking amusement and love
My mind quickly keeping in thought
Quietness lurking
No laughter being heard
No voices speaking words
No smiles being seen
No love being shown
Such an EMPTINESS!
 

 
 
 
Heart
Written in 2001
 
Heart was once filled with so much love now broken into pieces.
Pieces that seem to take forever to put together.
Once most of the pieces are placed back together, the realization
     that it's not the same heart anymore becomes apparent.
The heart is cracked so many places and seems, so disformed
     waiting for those cracks to mend.
Some of those cracks became scars for each time it was hurt so
     horribly.
But even when the heart has recovered there is something missing.
Piece of the remodelled heart is missing.
It's the part "the love of your life" represents.
But is it really missing or is it only present when there is a love in your
     life?
Does it shatter or disappear when love does?
Does it slowly build or appear when you fall back in?
 
 
 
 
 
Questions
 
Why do people worry so much about things?
Why don't hey just think what their future brings?
Why do people think of ending their life?
Do they believe it ends their strife?
Why do we judge people like covers of books?
Can't we just ever accept people for who they are and not their
     looks?
Why don't all friendships last?
Why do so many dwell on the past?
Why are many parents so blind?
Can't they just see what's on their children's minds?
Why can't all problems ever end?
Do we just wait until the problems mend?
Is there even a point to life?
Or is life a big strife?
I wish I knew the answers I crave.
Or at least get answers before I go to my grave.
Will I ever know?
 
 
 
 
 
Lonely
Written on: November 23, 1998
 
Gazing up at the stars, wondering when I'm ever going to meet you.
Slowly drifting away in my mind.
Imagining a romantic and magical night.
Being held in your arms ever so tight, feeling so safe and loved,
     never ever wanting you to let go.
Staring lovingly into your eyes.
Kissing you ever so softly.
Your lips so sweet, your arms so strong, you heart so loving.
 
When will I meet you?
I know you are my perfect man and that you are out there
     somewhere.
When I stare up at the stars, are you staring up at them also thinking
     the same way?
I can only hope that I find you soon and that we put an end to this
     loneliness.
