"Dark Cloud Of Remembrance"

I am moving into this empty feeling…
On this dark cloud of remembrance
Emotions too damn intense to inspire verse
I came upon the contest of loving thoughts
As butterflies struggle in my naked chest tonight
Oh!! So painful…so bitterly raw
Trying to escape from deep within
The pinching pain of hurt and remembering
It crushed my heart by “loving”
It stole my spirit
And splattered the contents of my soul
Perfecting the torture… of true love
I tripped and stumbled along my way
Trying to be a perfect woman
Helped in every way I could
I almost overcame the fear of tomorrow
Appreciating the sacrifices made
Now caught between the ocean
And the vision from afar
I came upon the contest of my heart
Knowing the distance between us so very wide
I am moving in this darkness
On this dark cloud of remembering
Emotions way too intense to inspire happy verse
This poem the contest of loving thoughts
Became my biggest nightmare
Remembering now…everything I was told
The biggest lie ever…just remember this
Life crushed my heart
And stole my soul

Tinka, sometimes when I read your poetry, I feel as those the words are the action of playing a musical instrument, and my heart is the instrument. You tug at peoples hearts with your writes. On their heart strings. ~ Sara

Even a bigger reason to fight harder Tink, to me lifes a lot about feelings, which include love and other things. One of the other things most important to me is simply feeling good everyday even though things aren't going that well

life can be a sure mess
needing a cure dress.
Everyone has their day,
we all have our way.
Ways of dealing,
to make a messed up life
more appealing.
It's keep it appealing,
or end up like a pig squealing.
Just before they make ham,
out of a pig called Sam.

Actually his name was Roscoe,
that rhymed with go.
He changed from Sam,
because it rhymed will ham.
Changing his names didn't work,
he still landed on the end of the fork.
It's no mystery,
the poor pigs history.

He never figured he'd end up ham,
in a product called Spam.
