I look in the mirror
and what do I see ??
Someone who hides,
to escape reality.
Living in a dream
where nothing is real,
It's easier to pretend
then face what I feel.
The bitter demise
the slap in the face,
I refuse to live
with undeserved disgrace.
I have a heart
and a need to love,
I call on my angels
with strength from above.
Honesty and Integrity
is what I live by,
I am sick of being
the one left to cry.
No more tears
and no more sorrow,
I want to smile
and look forward to tomorrow.
I'm sick of living
for everyone else,
I'm going to start
doing things for my self.
So I will wake up
and grasp the new day,
God help anyone
who gets in my way!!

Honest and Good...nice flow, simple yet deep
So simple yet such depth in the delivery. I know "exactly" what this feels like. You have conveyed your emotions and thoughts very well here. It flowed nicely as well.
Thank you for your comment on my contest poem. I am glad it touched you. ~SherBluEyes~ -
i really liked this piece. it's simply written and it flowed really well for as i read it. it spoke to me as well, i really feel parts of it on a deep level... definitely echoes some feelings of my own, the second stanza in particular. well the sixth and seventh stanzas really hit me as well..! anyway this communicates your feelings beautifully. a lovely write.
