Treading Water

Contributed by DarkFaerie on Sunday, 12th March 2006 @ 12:32:40 PM in AEST
Topic: selfstruggles



I try so hard
To just keep
My head above water
I try to understand
What my heart
Is screaming at me
Somedays its gibberish
Lost in translation
Other days I see your face
Floating right out
Of my wounded grasp
I wish I could turn
Back dreaded time
So maybe I wasnt
Choaking in this sea
Of self-hate I created
It stretches for miles
Around my wounded form
It incompasses all
It makes me fight to live.
What I wouldnt give
To have you back
Just once again

That wrentching statement, ohhhh what we wouldn't give, and of course turning back the clock, do i hear you or do i hear you. A most powerful peice of poetry your heart speaking loud and clear and quite sincerely i might add. Beautiful write.
