    Hidden Pearls Shine the Brightest

     I lost my talent
    When you left with my spark,
    No regrets left to shed
    When I cried in the dark. 
    I thought life would get easier
    Now that I'm King,
    But my imagination withers;
    Not a song left to sing. 
    I'm happy as a clam,
    As the saying goes,
    But what the mind refuses to acknowledge,
    The Heart surely knows.


    Pain overrides senses
    When I see your smile
    Of that Little Boy
    I loved for a while.
    Everything fades,
    And you obviously knew that.
    While my pride falters,
    My envy grows forever fat. 
    I'm happy as a clam,
    The saying may gloat,
    But I'm having a hard time
    Keeping this ship afloat.  


    Sometimes I feel like I'm
    Drowning in life,
    With each passing wind
    Comes heart-clenching strife. 
    I hold onto fear
    Like some hold onto love.
    When I lose myself,
    I fly free as a dove. 
    I'm happy as a clam
    And this time it really is true. 
    I've been the happiest being
    Since I got rid of you.

    Poetry is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
