Pain engulfs all around me
Like the stabbing of nails
As far as the eye can see
Pain is in a little girls tears
Or in rejection after conquering your fears
Is pain all that there is?
Does no one see our actions are causing this?
When will the sky break
And things become bliss
Because I have given this world my all
And it has nothing left to take
So where is true happiness found
Is it found in the smile of a child
Or in the brightness of the moon
Or is happiness only found when we are buried in the ground.
Shawn, where you are right now, I was many times in my past but I found the Inner Strength to move on, by burying my past forever and taking a new path toward a new horizon, only carrying a bag containing two basic things badly needed: Faith and Hope! In our lives we all go through similar situations but with manage to grow up and move on! This is sad and painful write that clearly shows your potential in the Poetry World! 10+++ Keep inspiring all of us with more of your poignant writes, Champ! Love and Peace for always! Romeo from New York City! ...

i agree with romeo. your poem is a great write. you show a lot of promise. take a look at my poem called dreams of a child. that was nearly 30 years ago, so things do get better. i'm as happy as can be now, with a beautiful family. so you keep writing my friend and see what life brings.
