Sitting here thinking...

by WanderingShade   Oct 3, 2012


What would you do if you had to live the same day over and over again? How would you know which choice led to the best set of outcomes if you never got to see tomorrow? If you were stuck on replay for that day what could you really do different?
We often sit here and look back on our past, thinking of all that could have been and might have been. But do we truly want those what if's? Would we still be who we are today if we never suffered through the pains that brought us here? Maybe we would be just slightly altered because the pains were similar. Or we may be someone completely different. Having suffered through a hell is what makes us who we are.
Not every hell is the same but then again neither is every person. Some of us know pain well, while others may never have experienced any at all. Or maybe they have but just can't handle it. No one but you can understand the hell you've been through to make you the person you are today...
So maybe we shouldn't try to compare others hell's to our own. What you may be able to withstand others may not be able to take.

    I agree with Chels, you should try and space this out so the layout is seperated and not all as one paragraph, it will make it look more enticing to read.

    As for the content of your poem, you really do make us think and it takes forever to move onto the next line because I tried to ignore the questions and just read them but i couldn't because my mind kept trying to answer them !! Very thought provoking.

    Well done.

    Wow! I absolutely loved this. I found it so thought provoking. All your questions and points were valid and gets the reader to question everything you've said.

    Id suggest breaking this up into stanzas to make it more easy to read.

    Really loved this topic, I feel I need to go analyze these questions now.
