"I am Happy to The Point of Fear" -Ralph Waldo Emmerson


I dont want to remember,
I dont want to feel,
The emotions and the noises,
and memories to real.

I dont want to look back,
and see what used to be,
I can hardly move forward,
Let alone pretend to be happy.

Dont make me see that face,
Dont make me hear the voice,
I will start to doubt again,
And rethink every choice...

I will suddenly grow weak,
like I stand in sinking sand,
My strength will die and I will cry,
And my head will fall in my hands,

the pain will overtake me,
Even I wont know what to do,
So dont make me remember,
When there once was a you...

"We've got this gift of love, but love is like a precious plant. You can't just accept it and leave it in a cupboard or just think it's going to get on by itself. You've got to keep watering it. You've got to really look after it and nurture it." - John Lennon

"In my end is my beginning."... - T.S. Eliot

I absolutely love this! The rhyme scheme is great. The flow is great. And I relate to it perfectly. That's the key to poetry... appealing to emotions and you've got it down. Keep writing!
