Never Stop Fighting

By Eladrim

This day is not what I wanted.
This day is not what anyone ever wanted.
But though this day was bad,
It's no different than past days had.

It just seems like all I see
Is my world crumbling around me.
I feel alone, abandoned,
But at the same time pressed, surrounded.

All that I say
Quickly fades away.
I know that noone cares,
I can see it in their stares.

So I harden my heart and I close my mind,
Because in time I always find,
That it's easier not to feel
Even if my soul will never heal.

I hold on to the wounds and hold on to the pain,
Sitting weary and cold out in the rain.
Even though shelter is within my grasp,
I'd have to tear down my walls, remove my mask...

  • A former member wrote: The verses are good in themselves ,but some don't seem to fit, maybe you're trying to say more than one thing at a time with so many different things on your mind... -Salem

    I loved this piece. The story it tells almost seemed fammiliar to me. I can relate to it, and there aren't many poems that I can relate to. Beautifully done. -Cinn

    This was wonderful hon. So much emotion. You should remove your mask and show people your beautiful mind and soul. Just remember you're not alone. :)
