    Poem Commentary

    Sometimes no matter how hard i try, it just won't come out right.

    Futility

    Far away

    inside and out

    Alone in my pain

    cant scream or shout.

    Wish I had a person

    that i could call

    spill out my heart to

    anytime at all.

    So many disappointments

    too many misses

    so much loss

    not enough kisses.



    Wish there were memories

    of happy things too

    not just losses

    and feeling blue.



    Tried to do it right

    make dreams come true

    just sad memories

    when i am with you.

    I can feel your pain, and I relate all to well with this write. Oh no, I've said too much or I have not said enough? My ears are always open. Good write.

    I related to this poem well. The good thing about experiences and feelings though, is that new ones can be created that are more positive. Easier said than done; but it can be done.

    Love, while a gift to have had...can also be a loss we could do without....this was such a sad but honest depiction of an ill fated love....the title was genious in my opinion...almost immediately the image of me pulling my hair out came to mind...nicely done...Cher

    Nice expression here. I read about loss and remembering the blue but it sounds like you loved and sometimes in life the love we give is all we have, I'm glad you loved because at least there was that. I can relate to the unrequited love thing but also for my part , under the feelings of regret there is a place where my love is and was....love and freewill to you. Insideme

    Thanks for such sweet thoughts and sentiment. Hope all your days are wonderful and full....Tlady

    Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
