Rebecca Locust Poem
Why do i feel so isolated
As if I'm not in control?
Why do I see walls around my life
Though there is none that I have built?
Why do i allow fear to affect my judgment?
Ignorance feeds fear, but the knowledge is out of my reach
Why do I hurt
Even though there are no scares?
Why do I constantly feel pain for my coflicting thought
But I never seem beside myself?
Why do I tolerate the anguish
While knowing how to stop it?
Why do I divenigrats my faith and hope
But know that without it, i weill have no chance?
Why do I waste my time looking for a hero
Even though i always knew I was alone?
Why do I allow myself to be different from the inside out
But know how to unify the both?
Why do I not know who I am
Even though i have always been the same?
Why so I limit my dreams
While knowing I can break my boundries?
Why do I contiue to walk in circles
When I know a strait path?
Why do I hide
Even though there id noone around to see me?
Why do I fight and yell
But there is noone to listen or disagree?
Why do I try to explain myself
When I don't really know who i am?
Why do Ilook for the easy way out
Even though Iknow that none exists?
Why...
Why do I look for the end of the tunnel
Even though Iknow I will never see the light?
Why...
Why don't I look for answers?
Because liveing with only questions allows you to extract nothing from life...
Answers create puzzle pieces to establish a final picture.
And the questions only show what the picture may become
Why continue?
God please let me know "why'?

Rebecca Locust Poem
You will pay
for trying to hide
The darkness that concealed you
has more secrets that it does not share
The strength it had to hide you
is used in so many ways
The real fears you have are sneaking up unseen
Because the darkness works both ways
You may not be seen but
your pain and fear will also be invisible
I know because i can feel you
You are standing so close,
I can feel you tremble
I cant see your troubles nor the toll they have on you
for we are hidden in the darkness
Though i can feel the scares and your racing heart
because our ability to feel is not effected
So we must learn to feel with our hands and out hearts
because what we see may be diluted or distorted
And, we, as an entirety, have now got to pay!
