POEM: Because I still have my life.

eagle Pictures, Images and Photos

So much I’ve lost
less that I’ve gained
thoughts that are left
which drive me insane.

Lost the precious time
in which I could grow
lost my beautiful dreams
that’s why I feel so low.

Childhood was my best
youth lost in sadness
what’s left to live in life
as this soul is full of stress.

Wish I could go back
fix the things that are missed
free myself from this pain
this pain, to which a goodbye should be kissed.

But still I got the time
to get up on my feet
face this world again
lots of opportunities to meet

regrets and guilt
all this life’s strife
to be smashed deep inside
because, I still have my life.

The path through pain is one of the greatest teachers. If you sleep through the lessons you have to do them all over again.

Excellent poem.
Just hope you’re ok, it’s not as upbeat as some of your other ones.
Don’t live your life with regret, or you’ll spend the rest of your future living in the past.

pain is how you grow. Through pain and loss is how you appreciate the things you thought you would never lose. It makes you hold on to precious things all more tightly.

Smile at the old memories, but look toward your present. Don’t ever let your heartbreak spoil your future memories!

I’m curious… Is this sincere or are you being faintly mocking as you have no idea what I meant?

Its so hard to tell these things from mere text sometimes :P

Hello there.

It’s been a long time since you invited me to one of your poems. I see you are feeling a bit down at the moment but dont stay there for to long.
I remember the poem that tells about the leaves whispering as they fall, take that thought a bit deeper.
They then rot, the rains take the sediments into the ground, they make food for the tree and many surounding plants to grow stronger. A cycle that repeats itself.

The tree is a home and refuge for thousands perhaps millions of creatures during it’s life time. It is a trees purpose in life.

You have a purpose in life, that is to enjoy and share it with others. To find and see the beauty in it that are all such wonderful things to behold.
You have the gift of writing poems. You have already made a lot of people happy they have read them.
This is a sad one, one of reflections of the past. The past you can not change, there is hope with the future.
So let that big heart of yours hope, seek and strive for better times ahead.

Heya Cathetel, I know you feel sadness remembering the times lost, but always remember that you’re not living in the present so you should use those feelings to make the most of it and develop memories so that when you look back, you’ll be filled with joy!

P.S. It’s good to see your posts again!

i think its ok to write a sad poem. Its part of the processes of coming to terms with something. sometimes we are sad and its ok to express that, how can you let something go, or move on from feelings if you keep them locked up.
