I walk alone

I can't take this anymore
and i'm almost pretty sure
i've been here before
i can't take this any longer
i won't heal until i'm stronger
strong enough to not be afraid
of what anybody thinks
of what anybody says
about the way
about the way i am
so i'll wait until the day
when those feelings fade away
then i'll make my break

I guess you had to step away
to make me want to be
a bigger man, a bigger man than that
i need you by my side
as i take it all in stride
I put away, i put away my pride

so i leave it up to you
i leave it in your hands
respect your wishes and your demands
but if it was up to me.....

everbody and everything i've known
never taught me how to stand up on my own
had to learn it from the one who let me go
now i walk alone

Selected lyrics from Olenader's I walk alone

A letter from a Parent

Dear Loved One,
You ask: How will you know when I am near you?
When on a sultry night
Everything is hot and still
The first cool breeze brushes your cheek
I am caressing you
Think of Me.
When the pangs of hunger are satisfied
and loneliness is pierced by happiness
Think of Me.
When your mouth is parched
and you can hardly speak
The first sip of cool water
I am soothing you
Think of Me.
When the cloud of death disappears
first on the opening of a baby's smiling eyes
Think of Me.
When I sprinkle your face with rain
and wash the earth, the dry brown leaves
The first smell of clean rain
I am cleansing you
Think of Me.
When pain dissolves
and fear disappears
Think of Me.
When steadfast eyes are horrified
by the cruelties of life
The first glances of the silent setting sun
I am comforting you
Think of Me.
Then you ask how will you know when you are near me?
When the burning sun has scorched you and the earth
The sand and dust fill your eyes
Not a silver of shade about
And you love Me.
When loneliness is accompanied by hunger
and not one can be satisfied
And you love Me.
When your lips are cracked
your tongue feels like clay
your throat seals up
There is no water about
Not even a mirage in sight
And you love Me.
When you hold a dying child
with eyes pleading
And you love Me.
When you stir the ocean to a crescent
You flounder in its depth like a leaf
And you love Me.
When i take from you your most
cherished possessions
On the first loss of your sight
darkness envelopes you
And you love Me.
For everything you see, hear, smell, taste or touch belongs to Me. So how can you give to Me what I already, am but your love? And that I gave to you before time began as your sole possession. When you return it to Me, then will I know you are truly Mine and I will dissolve your sorrow and happiness into Me.
That....being Me, I will place you in bliss forever. for, i love and think of you constantly.

From your most loving
Father.

well enjoy..and keep up the good work....

Pain
Kahlil Gibran

And a woman spoke, saying, "Tell us of Pain."

And he said:

Your pain is the breaking of the shell that encloses your understanding.

Even as the stone of the fruit must break, that its heart may stand in the sun, so must you know pain.

And could you keep your heart in wonder at the daily miracles of your life, your pain would not seem less wondrous than your joy;

And you would accept the seasons of your heart, even as you have always accepted the seasons that pass over your fields.

And you would watch with serenity through the winters of your grief.

Much of your pain is self-chosen.

It is the bitter potion by which the physician within you heals your sick self.

Therefore trust the physician, and drink his remedy in silence and tranquillity:

For his hand, though heavy and hard, is guided by the tender hand of the Unseen,

And the cup he brings, though it burn your lips, has been fashioned of the clay which the Potter has moistened with His own sacred tears.

Yeah Tunks. We all love those lyrics of "I walk alone". I guess that they are quite reflective of our lives sometimes huh? Well, just remember that we walk alone at times but when we find our true inner happiness, we feel at peace in this world...keep searching for that inner peace and love. Peace out {b4 i start to sound mushy or sappy, lol}

The concept of civil goes beyond you doesn't it?

But then again, thanks for your contribution though your editing was unnecessary. You're 'poetry' skill is truely reflective.

Plz refrain from expressing the hate here.

"Like an unchecked cancer, hate corrodes the personality and eats away its vital unity. Hate destroys a man's sense of values and his objectivity. It causes him to describe the beautiful as ugly and the ugly as beautiful, and to confuse the true with the false and the false with the true."
