"Every secret of a writer's soul, every experience of his life, every quality of his mind, is written large in his works." Virginia Wolf


Hopes are crushed,

Future is burning.

Holding on to thin rope,

Still learning.

Will I ever find healing,

Or saftey somewhere.

Final stretch,

Go go go says my mind,

Race for the finish line.

Help me save me,

Before I sink,

Beneath the waves.

They say what doesn't kill you,

Makes you stronger,

But I'm weaker everyday.


The author's comments:

This is about the feeling where you feel like the whole world has turned their backs on you and you feel there is nothing you can do reminding people to think about what you say.

I really appreciate all the comments, for a while there I thought my poems weren't any good.

"It Will Be Good." (complicated semi-spiritual emotional story.)<br /> <br /> "Upon his bench the pieces lay<br /> As if an artwork on display<br /> Of gears and hands<br /> And wire-thin bands<br /> That glisten in dim candle play." -Janice T., Clockwork[love that poem, dont know why, im not steampunk]

the poem by its self was really cool, again tho, the sidenote doesn't entirely match up, tho it doesn't feel so out of place. but ur a really good author anyhow.
i would also like to say: if nobody comments on your work for months and months and months, don't let it get to you. but i try, and lydiaq actively does. and she is an awesome person just doesn't know it.
