    Poem Commentary

    i guess i was a little bit blue the day i wrote this!!! no worries though i am alive and well!!!

    is this living???

    Like a flower in the cold wind

    I wither and bend,

    Like a rose in the desert

    With no drops of rain,

    Like the sky way up high

    With no stars to shine,

    Like the deep blue sea

    With no life, no means,

    Like the rainbow in the sky

    That hides above the clouds,

    Like a feeling of sorrow

    Like a feeling of pain

    Thats how i live my life again.

     

    I search for answers

    Above and below,

    I am going somewhere

    But i have no place to go,

    I dream a dream

    Thats never ending and blue,

    I die inside each day

    I truly do,

    I try to breathe

    But no air is around,

    I try to fly

    But i am stuck to the ground,

    I try to live

    But in death i am found,

    I seek the truth

    Where only lies lie,

    I need the light

    But i am already blind,

    A want to hear that song

    One last time,

    But i am death to the ear

    I cant hear a sound,

    I wanna break free

    But chains are all around,

    I wanted life but death

    Was all i found.

    So everything that i held

    Dear and true

    Are nothing but images in the mind

    Of just another crazy fool.

    I like the irony of it all. The torment. The constant try that only meets a dead end. I relate to this. It is like poetically crying. Reaching out only to feel the empty air. A good tormenting release of a poem...

    I feel what you say, but there is another way, reach inside and pull it out, it lives inside of you, its not about what others do its about what you do that makes the difference between feeling alive or frozen for your feelings come from you not them, there are no fools in love for only the wise can love, that is the wings that fly, when others fail. Look around you will see, don't permit others to paint your landscape with their scenes of decay, its only delusion, for the wind lifts all who see and yet dream, the universe is ever moving to bring it closer, as you enrich yourself in it. Listen for the whisper, the beauty of heart moves through you and everything else fall as the new arises for the new is always arising, no other owns it either, permit them their sidelines where there is no risk. You will not fall nor fail in your goals towards your dreams for only the hand of God controls the movements that move you closer, aligned with Him there is no storm to move you from your path.

    thank you so much!!!u are an inspiration!!!!thank you!!!

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.
