    I always love your poems ToV, great stuff.
  2. Dagless
    I really love this. It has a wondering quality to it which is really touching.
  3. Dagless
    From where I am now I can say that you don't always feel like half a person. The part of you that remains seems to grow somehow but as stong as I feel I have grown there is still a part of me that wants to be with her and wonders where she went.

    If I'm not posting much it's because I'm crying and lost for words.

    OMG!! This I did not see coming, what a pleasant surprise, thanks ToV. This one was a difficult one to write because it wasn't done at the time, as I felt it but it was done much later so I had to kind of put myself back in to that mood I was in that night. It wasn't a pleasant thing to do but I really wanted to show how helpless I felt that night.

    I've always considered myself to be an invisible man, I can not tell you how peoples response to this has just left me gob smacked, I'm just lost for words......

    I really am astounded by the response to this, not only here but in the Off Topic too. I was shocked when I came online and saw it had almost 100 views and it has since gone over that. Thank you, all of you.

    Kindred Spirit would have made an excellent title, I wish I had called it that now Thanks everyone I'm really glad you like it

    all those who have felt alone in a crowd of people, all those who have sat in silence on their own, all those who think that they are the only sane one in the room, all those who think they are the only crazy one, all those who have been at a party where everyone is having a great time and they have wished they where somewhere else with someone else, all those who love the sound of rain on the window pane, all those who have cried at a sad song, all those who have stood up for what was right and all those that fell, all those who know nothing lasts forever but dream as if they do all the same, all those who at times didn't want to sleep at night, all those who at times didn't want to wake up in the morning, all those who have cried at words written by another, all those who have cried while writing them, all those who have lost their dreams and all those who dare to dream again, They all have a friend in me. This was originally a reply to a thread in Off Topic about who on ENA would you be friends with in the real world. It was suggested that I posted it here, so here it is slightly extended.

    Lets just say it comes from a man who is daring to dream new dreams himself.

    "The greatest grief of all is that of the death of dream and to see a future fade away but when we lose the one thing we dream for the greatest bravery is to dare to dream new ones."

    This started out as a very different poem which had the line "It took a moment for her to be took away but love stayed, it would not go away." I really wanted to bring accross how that love is in our hearts and that is something that is within ourselves and that love is a bond we share. And real love is an unbreakable one at that. The title is a nod to the Dexy's Midnight Runners track "Love Part One"

    Dare I turn to you again? It was never you who hurt me You never left me You aren’t something that can be lost or found You are always in me Fighting fear alone Looking for a reason to grow Was it you who spoke to me all those lonely nights Telling me to hold on Hold on to you? Hold on because of you? You aren’t something that can be given or taken away You are within me Longing to be understood Waiting to shine The world is not devoid of you Because you are still in my heart Still in my eyes When I can not turn to you You will turn to me because you’ll never leave me.

    When I was writing this I found myself giving it a bit of an upbeat ending but I really wanted it to show the helplessness I felt that night. Everytime I post a poem I'm surprised at how may people have viewed it and left comments. I just want to say thanks to everybody who has ever read any my stuff, even if you didn't like it, thanks for reading.
  16. Dagless
    Yes, I'm fine, thanks to some kind words and a lot of understanding. I was lucky enough to have someone there who didn't let me down that night. She saved my life, I hope she knows what a special, wonderful person she is.

    One night about two months ago, I went to bed and I lay there and cried solidly for an hour. I felt so worthless I just wanted to go to sleep and never wake up. I stayed up till four in the morning, talking to someone on eNA, trying to save my sanity. To this day I'm not sure if I succeeded. I wrote this to express how I felt that night. How do you explain to God, That I’m not the man you think I am? I'm not a piece of your masterplan. And if we all die in the end Then take me tonight I’ll just lie here Take me, I won’t fight. These days I only breathe in To scream it out I only believe in myself So I can self-doubt. And if we all leave in the end Then take me tonight I’ll just cry here And will the end with all my might. I don’t even know What it is I’m here for now This life is so meaningless, so cruel, so cold I’m losing a grip of what I used to hold. I’m a ship chained to the dock I once was the key that fit that lock I want to drift and slip beneath the waves In to the darkness, I’m what it craves. So won’t you take me tonight? Does the world even give a damn? I’m not the man you think I am.

    I am forever out of reach Always one step ahead I can go as fast as the wind Or as slow as molten lead Some place their hopes in me Others call me a liar, who never gives what I promise Some say I give all I can When I’m gone you can reminisce Some try to buy me Some have drawn me out Others try to waste me But I can creep up on you without a doubt I am a companion Who can never stand still And you move along with me Through good health or ill I can be good or bad But I can change like the tide I can be happy or sad But I have never cried Don’t take me for granted I’m not always on your side, in case you forgot For I’ll still be here tomorrow But you may not.

    I love this. For some reason it reminded me of the John Lennon lyric "We all shine on, like the Moon and the Stars and the Sun" I love that last line "Who Shines on the Sun?" great stuff.

    I nearly didn't put the Rock n Roll line in because I thought it sounded a little cheesy but I don't think the "I can feel the moss grow" line would make sense without it so it stayed. I think this is my least favourite of the poems I've posted, I don't know it feels kind of clunky. Edit: Reading it back now, it actually works better than I thought.

    I need to get out of here Too many years of loneliness and fear I feeling my soul growing stale Try to kick start the thoughts but the sentiments just fail You and I together, we were going to get ourselves free Until a twist of fate took away that destiny I can’t go back to how I lived before Too many tears and nights on the floor It’s like something weighing heavy on the soul I’m like a rock that can’t roll I don’t want to stand still, I can feel the moss grow But God help me I’ve got no where to go You where the key to these chains I know you’re gone but the feeling still remains To fly free with you What am I to be without you? Our love was going to set us free Now that you’re gone am I to be alone for an eternity?

    A couple of Sundays back I was feeling really lost, did some crying and wrote this. It doesn't rhyme, it was just thoughts and feelings written down really. I wasn't going to post it but reading it today I though I really does get accross how I was feeling that day, so here it is. My mind is with you But my body longs to hold you Another night of crying holding your things Your smell is still there That’s the closest I can get It feels like losing you again It’s the loneliness that’s killing me This world is so empty without you It’s just not the same This was not how it was suppose to end We were going to be happy That’s all we ever wanted It’s like I’ve been hollowed out Nothing left but a mind that does nothing but think about you And a body that doesn’t understand That you’re gone.

    Thanks Allie, glad you liked it

    I did write this one with lyrics in mind. I think I need to go and learn to play that guitar I've got somewhere up the loft gathering dust

    I love it. "hiding burning tears in the cold rain and the whisper of a heartache in the rush of dull umbrellas" What a line, brilliant.
