Inside Me

I know a place you do not know, I see a face you cannot see, I feel the touch of ice so cold, And hear the voice that beckons me. I feel the stillness of wind that stings, And I cry silently through the pain, Still, I hold on like angels without wings, And those voices remain, I have a place inside my heart, A room that holds my past, A place where only I could chart, And only I could go back. The face is mine of yesterday, The touch, the ice, the pain, all mine, The voice is one that could not stay, Thus, imprisoning me for all time.

I understand where you are coming from, having been there myself by things that have happened within my life.I'm sure that you also know,that you hold the key to release yourself by forgiving yourself or whomever has caused you the pain.Forgiveness make you stronger within yourself,and writing about it is the begining of a change within yourself. Become a ray of sunshine,and push away the darkened clouds.A hug to start you on your way. Cecil.

Faye, a very good write. Put behind yesterday and live for tomorrow. We all have yesterdays, but we must learn from our mistakes and not repeat them. That's called maturing. Good luck and welcome to Poetry-Soup. God Bless, Avis

The sooner you realize that the world doesn't owe you happiness or even know that you exist, the sooner you will fight for your happiness and be a better person because of it. Keep hope, because no matter how hard life beats us down, it is all you need to get through it okay. Also, if wind has stillness it isn't wind, it's air.  -KMD
