Drowning Emotion - A Lost Twinkle

understanding words..
caring like twinkling birds.
hold me close.. even if it isn't real
keeping me warm.. you know how I feel..

this shouldn't be here..
this... indescribable fear
something unknown, though familiar as hell
I hope...as I throw a coin down the wishing well

restraining myself as I am unsure
wondering.. is there a cure?
can I resist for one time?
another feeling.. I'm....

lost..

drowning in emotion
searching in devotion
trying to pull myself together
but it doesn't matter..

I think in the end..
you can't hide your true feelings..
one should make a stand
and hope for the healings..

it's stuck in my soul
..
it's something you stole..
and now it's demanding it's toll

Lost in my pray..
I rest my lost mind
all I can say..
as I enter my dream to find..


a lost twinkle

Author notes

just some feelings that are stuck in my mind during an emotional night..

    Nicely done and well understood. Ryhming isn't everything, and it was not needed here. I can see where you are coming from and understand how you feel. Keep up the good work!

    beautiful

    the rhyme-scheme doesn't really matter. actually, if you look, most of my stuff doesn't rhyme at all. i just seem to write that way. this really hit me. this is my situation right now, and it makes it kind of difficult...i see him every day, and sometimes i just want to give him a hug and a kiss and tell him i love him. anyway, i wish you the best of fortune with your love. favorite lines:
    understanding words..
    caring like twinkling birds.
    hold me close.. even if it isn't real
    keeping me warm.. you know how I feel..
    that really says it all in one neat little stanza.

    Well, i think we all feel lost at times...and need to find
    ways to purge those emotions. Just keep writing...and you
    will find your niche (referencing your comments about your
    rhyming). Then again, not everything has to rhyme many,
    many of mine do not...and many, many out there do not.

    Just go with it!

    *warm hug to you too*
    well, sometimes things can feel very real.. just like in dreams.
    And why should it be any different if it only feels real...

    I think the point in life is trying to find the best in things, real or not, waking life or dreams, and learn to deal with them IRL in the best way possible. Finding the good opportunities of it, while respecting the others.
    at least, that is how I am starting to look at it now since this morning after waking up..
    For all that matters, a Dedicated Friendship... is way too valuable to lose over such frivolous things as uncertainty..
