A sad picture

Contributed by wordsy on Tuesday, 14th January 2003 @ 05:50:00 PM in AEST
Topic: EmotionalPoetry

Is it any wonder
you're crying alone
and still sometimes I wonder
is there anyone at home

The lights are growing dim
with the shades of night pulled low
looking for the signs of life
not sure if they will show

There's no use in pretending
because it will not go away
And still you try defending
what you have to say

I've watched you in the mirror
and I see you standing there
trying to avoid it
as if you did not care

And all your pretty pictures
that you've got upon your wall
Too bad they could not be there
to catch you when you fall

The pain you feel inside you
grows stronger everyday
This wall you've built around you
just gets in your way

You've never cared, for anyone
that you did not walk upon
and you never dared let anyone
know that you were fond

And all your pretty pictures
fade to black and white
If you could only see yourself
in a different light

The time is growing shorter
and the end is drawing near
and still you stand there crying
frozen by your fear.

I feel you on that one. Nice job.

While every care is taken to ensure the general sites content is family safe, our moderators cannot be in all places; all the time.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
