*~*I am Me*~*







I have a few of my Mom's poems which

reflect a dark period in her life and

have decided to share them with you all also...

She is much happier now...

thanks Katty

************************************

I am me...

Cannot you ever see?

That I am not a character,

From one of your many books.

************************************

You took a piece of clay...

to mold it you knew not how.

You made a statue,

but you gave no thought of how...

to put feeling into the clay.

************************************

Your thoughts and feelings...

your ideas and desires.

These were all you gave to be.

That is what was important to you.

************************************

But could you never see?

That this statue was not of cold clay?

I was real, with a heart,

a mind and a few ideals of my own

************************************

I cannot give up everything I was,

just to be what you think you want.

So now you no longer want,

that which you have created.

All I can do is sit here alone.

************************************

You are searching,

for someone or something.

That cannot be, yet you cannot see.

That I am just me.

~*~ Can't You Hear My Cries~*~









Are you satisfied...

Do you know what you have done...

Are you blind to my tears...

Do you think I can continue...

To live this way...

What do you think and…...

What do you say…...

************************************

I am sitting here alone..

I listen to the radio...

And I hear the songs they sing...

Of cheating, unhappiness and heartbreak...

I look out of the window...

And see the clouds and rain...

And I fell the gloom of a...

Cold dull gray morning yet once again...

************************************

The chill of the day...

Cannot compare to the...

Chill which resides within my heart...

Of a love gone cold...

Or the ache of a tired body...

Grown useless and old...

************************************

But you will not look...

Or will not care...

To see the tears I cry...

And choose to listen with deaf ears...

Oh can't you hear my Cries...
