Ali Matheny Poet I do not know?

My Heart

I have no loving feelings to set my body free.
To sail through the night to see what I can find.
But all I can find is lies that set my soul on fire.
Curses fill my head and weak right down to my legs.
Spinning so fast it sends my braveness away.
The scared feeling I have inside lets my life stay still.
When I see you smile the world that we live in, I know I'll be alright.
That makes everything seem better.

Vince Suzadail Jr. August 28, 2008 at 3:35 PM You've got 2 people rooting for you now. You will never know how much courage you have until you take the first steps. You will be all right. The voices are real to you. You can learn to ignore them. It WILL NOT be easy. It messes with your mind. You have strong loving feelings or you would have never started cuttings if those feeedlings had been hammmered by what you've gone through. God Bless, Alexz. Vince
