Sleepless slumber

Contributed by Darkscorpio on Sunday, 2nd February 2003 @ 07:18:36 PM in AEST
Topic: DreamsandWishes



Nightmares many miles away, but I still remember
Like it happened yesterday, mind raked in pain
Trapped inside my own success, the new scars still remain
Despised all, the things I've done,
Hated all the wars I've won
Yes I still remember, being out of control
watch the turmoil take it's toll
I wished it wasn't happening to me
Weakness' exposed, for everyone to see
And when I thought I couldn't sink no more
I tried to hide inside my walls
but couldn't close the door...

I wake up in a cold sweat, and I am all alone
The pain is may miles away, a year hass come and gone
The new scars in my mind, will one day fade away
I'll finally have a somewhat normal day
...I'll be proud of the things I've done
...No talking of the battles won
...Be in control of destiny
The conflict gone
I'll finally accept
me

interesting style to this poem. Definately one I can relate to. But one cannot (as you mention at the end) spend their lives going over their past. Things happen and if one learns from them and tries to be a better person, that's all that matters.
Nice Write.
