Midst

Contributed by shelby on Sunday, 15th March 2009 @ 12:38:54 AM in AEST
Topic: oops



Try as I may it is staggering to me
that in the midst of everything
nobody really see's, the ins and outs
just all about self........

I find it distasteful that others
will never learn, and act like children
breaking the rules, then throw a tantrum
and not accept the reality of it all.

Then the moment in the midst of it all
the ins and the outs and inner turmoil
when the ones you counted on
"to always be there"
flew the coop, none here none there.

Proclaiming with a tear or two in your eye
and whispering a sad spring song
to the winds lonely sigh.....
I did not want anything just a friend near my side
and you have a sobering moment
and then wished that you didn't.
Things are not at all the way they appeared.

Gathering up the little pride one has left
and hoping and praying things turn for the best.
New times and hard times and fear in the midst
and knowing in the midst of it all......
people turned cheek and ran.......

Shelby...

Like twenty-nine degree water! Five years ago I was broadsided...wham! I hate this saying, but bear with me: "What doesn't kill you makes you better..." (vomit) My problem with that little euphemism is if this is better, how bad must I have been? Anyway, what's sad about these kinds of experiences, it's so hard scraping enough of your Self back together to trust anyone else. Venting is so, so, good! *&*$#^%^%^&*%#^&^&*(((%$%#%

Catch 'ya later...

Sometimes I wish the veil to be back over me...but if that happened, she wouldn't be happy. My pain is worth her happiness.
I don't like my reality but have learned to cope with it. And yes, there is a need to vent....
Hope all is well for you.
Stay safe out there....
Steve

I'm sorry to hear that someone hurt you. You seem a kind, giving and witty person.

Your poetry is not only poetic, it is always honest. You place beautiful imagery into your pain and your words endear the reader to you.

Thank you for sharing this poem with us.

My dear friend...I could relate few lines though no tear ever dared to appear in my eye.. You are a kind hearted and a very friendly ,lovely soul..it seems some one might have hurt your feelings..But forget them.. you should be strong like a mountain cliff that stands always lofty.
hugs and love my dearest lady.:-) venkat

venting is good...but if I was to do it in my writing I wouldnt be able to post it here. You know what I am saying. Though it is very sad you did a great job as always.

hugs
