UNDER THE TIDE

JUNE 20TH 2008

UNDER THE TIDE
Emotions trapped , Emotions flowing.
Ebb tide movement , yet there growing.
Turbulent waters under the tide
Tears flow freely , no longer trapped inside
Escape is eminent , yet where do I go
silently screaming , unable to stop the flow
emotions are like a runaway train
I cant hold back , I cant stop this pain
Back to the streets, no love is expected
nothing offered, nothing, rejected
a simple plan until I start to see
without my friends that's where I'd be

    You captured the feelings that I have at times. My emotions go wild and I have no way to express them verbally without causing WWW III. I to have been in the streets but managed to get away from them to never return. The sad thing for me was that I did not have friends to pull me away. As you can see, this write touched me.

    I hope this isn't what you are going through at this time. Most your poems are upbeat or at least positive. This was done so well. If flowed so easily and was an emotional read
