Pathetic Poetry

Always sitting or laying,
Between these concrete walls,
Praying,
That god gives me something today,
Anything,
Just listen when I say,
That I feel so down,
So down it's pathetic,
Trying so hard to
Accept this for what it is,
Poetic,
So many emotions,
Feelings, 
Thoughts intruding my head,
Somehow I went,
From feeling so alive, 
To feeling so dead,
How can this be,
That I'm used to this,
Why does it feel so good,
To punch these walls with,
Bleeding fists.
I can't even cry now,
It's been so long since,
Looking up into the sun,
Closing my eyes behind this,
Fence,
I see freedom as an object,
Unable to obtain,
Marking down the days,
With the pencil,
I use to express my pain,
This pathetic poetry of mine,
My only escape from here,
But hope is needed so much,
But it's on thing I've come,
To fear,
Because it's only become,
Something of a let down,
Because freedom is,
Something,
That just never comes around.

I agree with Michael. There is nothing pathetic about your poetry. It is beautiful - you know why? It is real and straight from your heart. The sun will shine for you again. Hold on to your faith, your loved ones, and believe. And keep writing of course! Love, Shar

Mac there is nothing pathetic about writing what you feel - As far as the calender throw it away all it will do is haunt you - When doing time forget about yesterday and don't dream of tomorrow - all you have is today - It took me about 5,637 days to figure that out - I learned it the hard way spare yourself the agony of it all - Record your feelings everyday regardless of how pathetic you may feel they are, in the end thats all you got left - I answered your email - God Bless, MJ
