so many things left unsaid
you wish you could turn back the time
the impossible will never be possible
life does have a button for rewind
it teaches you it's lessons
you're kicked around and broken
you heart falls into a deep sleep
then suddenly it's re-awoken
the lessons learned from the past
come racing to your mind
the false dreams of reality
the happiness you'll never find
the bruises on your heart
shine and glisten in the night
you think you're done with life
you're tired of this on-going fight
so you put up a wall around your heart
and you never think twice of the pain
you fall deeper every day
knowing there's nothing left to gain
then one person comes along
and you watch your wall crumble away
you're left looking in the face of reality
thinking, maybe this one will stay
the sense of hope overwhelms you
you can feel love once again
the fight has finally ended
the pain holds a sign that read " you win."
so when life throws you curveballs
don't get too upset and strike out
for you'll be happy once again some day
of this i'm sure for you've erased all traces of my doubt
you wish you could turn back the time
the impossible will never be possible
life does have a button for rewind
it teaches you it's lessons
you're kicked around and broken
you heart falls into a deep sleep
then suddenly it's re-awoken
the lessons learned from the past
come racing to your mind
the false dreams of reality
the happiness you'll never find
the bruises on your heart
shine and glisten in the night
you think you're done with life
you're tired of this on-going fight

umm..it doesn't make too much sense to me. i just started writing and this is what came out. someone has given me hope again...and i'm just waiting for it to be ripped away...but maybe, just maybe...anyways, let me know if it makes any sense at all.

life lessons do make one see what needs to be seen...
yet when we are there to see it...somehow we don't....and as far as meeting that special one... some of us do meet that person.... some of us are still looking.
Keep penning on one stroke at a time!

Very good
This is a very interesting and emotional poem, i like it a lot. Especially, i like the end of it - it's like the "advice" that can show the road to people. It is a very intresting work!
Thank you for sharing!

I like the risk thing, It is so hard after so many fails to take risks but so true, if none are ever taken how will we ever know?
great comment -
this was a wonderful write
very encourageing -
It made sense to me... these are things that everyone wonders but in my opinion life is about risks... I mean, if you never take risks than you never really love do you? you have a real talent and it shows here as you sort of stray from the subject in this but you still manage to weave all of the craziness into something great... I really enjoyed it
