So I find myself lost again.
Needing a close friend.
To help me though the pain.
But I can't help but restrain.
The feelings I have inside.
The ones I try so hard to hide.
The sorrows and hardships I been though.
Asking anybody what do I do.
But it is like I am all alone.
Seeking the way just needing to be shown.
Walking away would be the easy way out.
I wanna scream I wanna shout.
If I could get this off of my chest.
I could finally put this to rest.
And move on with my life.
Without holding the knife.
I could be free again.
Maybe then could I have a friend.
To be by my side.
We would have nothing to hide.
I would be able to smile.
Without all the nonsense denile.
I would see the light.
And not feel so alone at night.
I would not have to be nobody but me.
I could look though my eye's and see.
That it is all the past.
I would be first not last.
Needing a close friend.
To help me though the pain.
But I can't help but restrain.
The feelings I have inside.
The ones I try so hard to hide.
The sorrows and hardships I been though.
Asking anybody what do I do.
But it is like I am all alone.
Seeking the way just needing to be shown.
Walking away would be the easy way out.
I wanna scream I wanna shout.
If I could get this off of my chest.
I could finally put this to rest.
And move on with my life.
Without holding the knife.
I could be free again.
Maybe then could I have a friend.
To be by my side.
We would have nothing to hide.
I would be able to smile.
Without all the nonsense denile.
I would see the light.
And not feel so alone at night.
I would not have to be nobody but me.
I could look though my eye's and see.
That it is all the past.
I would be first not last.

Wow, this poem had a nice flow to it. The part that stuck out the most was
But I can't help but restrain.
The feelings I have inside.
The ones I try so hard to hide.
Keep up the good work.

These lines stood out for me:
I would not have to be nobody but me.
I could look though my eye's and see.
That it is all the past.
I would be first not last.
You can believe that is true. You write such wonderful words and must see how truthful they are. Take them to heart. I love your work.
Peace and love,
Petratani

Very Powerful piece!
Powerful emotion flows from your pen!! Longing to be loved for who we are not who someone wants us to be is a universal feeling. You have a great way with sharing emotion!!

I'm really in love with this one.
It's very honest. -
Meaningful
I enjoyed this very much. It's very honest. You let a guard down here and I imagine a man with his head in his hands somewhere in a forest..just whispering to himself, trying to get his head straight. Again, I see military term used. It might be your forte.
In this poem, you are "keeping it real".
