Once again.

by BlueDreams   Oct 6, 2007


Outside it is hot, and the joy of life does unfold
Inside it is becoming extremely cold
Feelings of love have left my heart
This is not all that is tearing me apart

My heart is pained and heavy with despair
As I am now beginning not to care
Without caring I know I will not cope
As time passes, I see that for me there is little hope

Withdrawing deep within myself
Hiding at the back of the shelf
Not wishing to cause heartache or pain
My self worth I must search for, and regain

Without it my life will be of no use
I refuse to live a life of self abuse
For some reason there are people that still care for me
My current condition, I can not let them see

An answer must be within me, I must dig deep
I need strength, I should eat well and sleep
Having a belief in my personal resolve
There is no doubt that I will learn and evolve

Speaking to people day after day
I listen, and hear what they say
Due to their presence, just being there
I will once again, love, hold and care.

    Bert,this is so sincere that i can actually feel the pain and the sadness.It touched my heart.I have felt this before myself,it is not easy to conquer but I know you will.I can also feel the glimmer of hope from your heart. Excellent as usual.

    This piece is very contradictory, I wondered how you put it in the love category, but in the end I knew why...
    Unexpected love poems totally amuse me =)
    that was really sweet, very well-written & convenient expressions

    keep it up =) xxx
