Poetry

Well I don't have a whole lot of my own poetry that
I would like to share right now, but I do have two
pieces that I submitted on www.poetry.com that
are going to be published. The first one is Confused
Innocence and the second one is Stirred Emotions.

Confused Innocence

Where daily pressures influence the outcome,
and everday is a costant battle,
to live the life you have always wanted,
and stay afloat in a sinking world.

Where the future lies still,
and the past is a constant recurrance,
of events not letting go,
and present events sure to shed tears.

Where everyday stress turns into fear,
and people you thought were friends,
turn their heads in disgust,
and walk away as though they don't care.

Where the question how do I play a part in this world
constantly fills my overworked mind,
and where the answer replied,
is never what I want to hear.

Stirred Emotions

My anticipation has grown so high,
every emotion filling my body.
Showing strength which,
I never believed I had,
and showing weaknesses,
which I thought I had overcome.
Feeling so down under,
and suddenly being pulled back up.
Believing I was to the point,
and then being told I was wrong.
Needing to know who I am,
I thrive for each new day.
Waiting for any response,
to tell me where I am.
Believing there is no end,
to this life which I put forth.
Showing me there is something,
awaiting my surprise.
Wanting to know where I belong,
striving to believe I am human.
