Thanks everyone for the kind words!
I wrote this last night....it actually is a song more so than a poem so it's a little different...
For A Moment
I will not take it anymore
My soul can't bear it anymore
My heart cries out - I can't be free
Why have you stolen all of me?
And when I listen to my self
It cries for peace
Just for a moment,
just a moment
let me be.
I wouldn't choose
this path willingly
yet my feet have
sought it still.
And now I try to
make it through the night.
And when I listen to my self
It cries for peace
Just for a moment,
just a moment
let me be.
I am so strong
I am so weak
You do it all
controlling me.
I love, I hate,
I laugh, I cry
Then I watch you
walk on by.
On by..goodbye.
And when I listen to my self
It cries for peace
Just for a moment,
just a moment
let me be.
