    • So my friends wants me to write a poem about me and him...I haven't written in so long I don't know if I can just write on command like this. Any advice?

    life's paths

    What do you do when everything stops making sense

    When you can't tell up from down or right from left

    When all that was real proves fake and you begin to question your dreams

    Were they real? Did they happen? Will they ever?

     

    What do you do when you lose those you love

    When whether you actually love them is a question rather than a statement

    How to decide who it is you're willing to let go of

    Who it is that you just can't stand to lose, who you can't live without

     

    What do you do when your life changes?

    When it flips upside down and inside out

    When your friends become more than friends

    When your more than friends become simply friends

     

    What do you do when you don't know which path to take?

    When there's a million options but none seem right

    When everyone's happiness is on a different path than everyone else's

    When no path seems to hold your own happiness

     

    What do you do when you're forced into choosing?

    How do you decide who to let down and who to make happy

    When there's no compromises no have it both ways

    When it becomes one or the other no ifs ands or buts

     

    What do you do when you're left all alone?

    Everyone standing and waiting on you to make a move

    Everyone staring and wondering how you'll choose

    Wondering more importantly who you will choose and who you will leave

    TORN LOVERS SEVER LIMBS IT LOOKS GRIM FOR OUR HEROINE DINE OR FEAST HER DECISION WILL LEAVE ONE TURNING INTO A BEAST NO CONSCIENTIOUSNESS NO HOSTAGES AS THE BEAST DEVOURS ALL DISMAYED AND DISMAL SHE IN IT FOR THE LONG HAUL NEVER RESISTING BENDING AND TWISTING TWO LOVER'S LOVE LAY PENDING TO EACH OTHERS RESPONSE IF GIVEN THE CHANCE IT WILL BE FOREVER EXISTING NEVER ENDING. AND THAT WAS WHAT YOUR POEM INSPIRE ME TO WRITE.

    i stand still in the quite of nature.....and meditate...and as soon as i quit...i get confused again...i am following my heart....waiting once again for my life to start...i do not compare or contrast...for the love of my life...will always last;)....great read! you rock!!!hard!!!lol

    with that i might say i am without him now but in my heart...still stands the vow..that we had made..wether broken now...i know in my heart it will all work out...i cry for him every night...and pretend to hold strong...by putting up a fight...how stupid we can be...wish pride would just set me free

    Poetry comes nearer to vital truth than history.
