It Will Be The Last Time He Tries

( number 960 )

He was so oblivious to everything,
it surrounded him.

He didn't care about anything,
not even him - self he made
such careless mistakes.

For every truth holds two lies,
and those lies holds his fate.

For far to many times he tried
failed and failed, denied of his pride.
Door after door searching to find
something of meaning, one of a kind.

He hears his heart yell louder
then the voices in his head.
 

Tears he cries this endless
dream, pain he feels flows
like a waterfall into the
rivers stream.

Pieces of his heart began to shatter
even more, his guilt is something he
would like to erase.

His nightmares are hunting him once
again. He used to be so strong, but lately
he feels so week. He can't seem to speak
his mind, he can't find his voice.

He slowly begins to break - down
he wants to fight it, to fight what

he feels inside, but he knows
he can know longer hide.

For love has finally taken flight he
grasp it close and holds on tight.

    At times when I read the words of another poet I see myself in their words. with yours, so many memories come back . And I again feel that shame.

      I think that sometimes it is good to feel that shame once again I think it keeps us from making that same mistake over again and even though it can be hard at times its a reminder to us all that we are only human. Thank you for always taking the time out to read my poetry and giving me feed back you are truly a great friend you are a rare and special find.

      sincerly, your poeit
