    "CONFUSED, AND DOWNHEARTED"
    I FEEL MYSELF "PARTING" FROM THOSE I LOVE MOST,
    MY "APPEARANCE" IS LACKING, I'M BECOMING A GHOST!
    MY HEART'S REACHING OUT,,,,BUT MY HANDS PUSH AWAY,
    I "DON'T", NEED THEIR "PITY!", I'LL BLOCK WHAT THEY SAY!

    SEEMS LIKE "EVERYONE'S" TRYING TO GET IN MY HEAD!
    THEY HAVE GOOD INTENTIONS,,BUT UPSET ME INSTEAD.
    THEY FEAR I'LL LOSE "INTEREST", AND JUST GIVE UP "HOPE",
    THEY CAN TELL THAT MY "PATIENCE'S", AT THE END OF MY ROPE.

    "FEELING" TUCKED IN A "TOMB",,,WITH "SMALL" HOLES CUT FOR AIR,
    WOULD "ANYONE" MISS ME? WOULD THEY "CARE" IF I'M THERE??!!
    LIKE "ESCAPING" FROM "SORROW", FOR YEARS I HAVE SPENT,
    WOULD IT MAKE ME FEEL "LIFTED"?, MORE AT "PEACE" OR "CONTENT"?!

    COULD A PERSON ONCE WHOLE, FEEL SO "INCOMPLETE"?
    I HAVE ALL MY  FUNCTIONS,,,,,,BUT STILL CAN'T "COMPETE"!
    IT'S PULLING ME BACK! IT'S MAKING ME "WEAK",
    I'M "SLIPPING" AWAY, THIS MOMENT WE SPEAK!!

    LIVED "LIFE" AT IT'S FULLEST,,,,,,,,BUT NOW, JUST "EXIST",
    ENJOYED A "COMPANION",BUT NOW I "RESIST"!
    I'VE ALWAYS BEEN "CHEERFUL", A "ROMANTIC", AT HEART,
    IT "HURTS" ME TO "LAUGH",,I'M "TORN" ALL APART!

    I'M "WASTEING" UP SPACE,,,,,A MORE "DESERVING" CAN USE!
    ONE THAT'LL MAKE OF THIS "LIFE" I ABUSE.........

    Pretty good. Not as polished as some of the others, Really can relate to the place of change, when the heart doesn't want to go on. Write on.....

    YOUR POEM HAS HINTS OF SOMEONE AWARE OF THE RECOVERY PROCESS AND THE STRUGGLES OF LIFE ONE ENCOUNTERS WITH THAT AWARENESS, YOUR INSIGHT AND THE TOOLS THAT GOT YOU TO THIS POINT WILL SEE YOU THROUGH, BELIEVE THAT.

    thx for the comment my friend,,but this poem was wrote for another, i just aired "their" hardship for them, carol

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

    John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
