    Advantages Advantages my kind of therapy

    Disadvantages Disadvantages depressing

    **NEW** *LETTER TO MY MOTHER* What do you want me to do, Ma? What will make things right? What will make you smile again? So we don't have to fight? What can I say to make you glad? Make you pleased to have me near? What do I need to get for you? For you to hold me dear? You had a bad day, well so did I, But what's the point of saying? You'll only say it's all my fault, I should have been obeying, Obeying the Lord and Master, The one who over me doth rule Who wields his power like a fist. And treats me like a fool. I try my best to love you, Ma I hide when you make me cry. I hide inside this ... more

    Advantages Advantages Getting it off my chest!!

    Disadvantages Disadvantages none to my knowledge!

    After I had gone through the grief of losing my husband of 26 years and widowed for 4 lonely years I met a guy who 'did' it for me! I went into that relationship blind, gullible, vulnerable, trusting and perhaps a bit naively. When it ended, the way it did, I was left with so many questions of Why?? Which I never ever got answers to. A lot of hurt was caused to me and my family and a rift occurred between me and my family and friends. It took 2 years to resolve the issues caused by him. I wanted to find 'closure' so made a booklet of the poems I wrote for him. I have put here the first poem I ... more

    5 Stars NIGHT OF EXPLOSIONS 26/08/2005
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Do I have to answer this all the time?

    Disadvantages Disadvantages I suppose I do!!

    This one was originally written in English for a change. I posted it in this section because for some reason, when I go to the Poetry section or Poetry Challenge, I only have the option to "Edit Review" and not "Write A Review". Does anyone know why? Can you only post one poem a month in each section? If you do, please enlighten me! I will try to post one more poem tonight, and then I shall go and read and give you (and myself) a break. : ) NIGHT OF EXPLOSIONS If only the night would last long enough, To let me spit out all my poison; Undercover of darkness, My senses are fully alight. If only ... more

    3 Stars The Faceless Murderers Review with images 08/07/2005
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Unsure

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Unsure

    They all have a cause; A point to make. But don't give a toss, 'Bout the heartbreak they create. Men and women like you and me, That's what they'd say if asked who they are. But what you'll find if you unlock the key, Is creatures of barbarity, nature having no par. They planted their bombs to go off in waves, Knowing their victims could be of many. Women, men, children or babes, Of lesser value to them than a worn-out penny. To them the politicians speak strong words, and we shed our tears and vent our disgust. But not until we treat them like turds. Will the circle of terrorism ever be bust ... more

    Advantages Advantages Written from the heart

    Disadvantages Disadvantages My heart has aged since then

    This poem was written when I was about 17. It's immature, crass in places, and there are quite a few things about it that make me cringe on re-reading. It also goes on too long. On the other hand, there are some lines in it that still stir in me the passion of the time and of which I'm still rather proud. I've tried re-writing it several times, in an attempt to preserve the good lines whilst cutting out the naivety - both philosophical and technical. I can't do it. As soon as I start editing, the fervour and the flavour of the piece are lost, and it feels false. I simply can't write like that ... more

    Advantages Advantages Summer 2002 was fine and hot

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Summer 2002 was marked by evil and tragedy.

    I never intended to delete this but my clumsiness on the site caused it to disappear. I've only brought it back now because this is a family time of year. And we should spare a thought perhaps, for those who have suffered losses too great to bear. Do you remember the Summer of 2002? Do you recall anything of significance? Let me jog your memory, this was the Summer that Jessica and Holly disappeared and the whole nation waited for news. As the days grew longer none of us wanted to contemplate the inevitable. One night I was watching an interview with Maxine Carr and was so struck by her ... more

    5 Stars An open letter to my father 02/07/2004
    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages Realisation of the truth

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Memories are difficult sometimes

    To my father, I tried hard today, Really I did, Tried to remember a time, When you were not angry. Fury burning in your eyes like fire. Hatred consuming everything but itself. Did you ever love me at all? You use to tell me that you hated me so often, A sneer would distort your face, distort my heart. I wanted to be loved by you, to be your ‘little girl’. But I never was, was I? I wanted to be cuddled and held in your arms To feel secure. To feel loved. I tried so hard to please you, to be what you wanted, But nothing was good enough for you. Only now do I understand, Nothing would ever have ... more

    Advantages Advantages releases pain

    Disadvantages Disadvantages beware some topics are very painful

    Just a quick openimg, some of these are not for the faint-hearted. 1. To my family. when mum was ill , she shared my home. you were so grateful, it was not you, tied up with your own lives, I lifted the resonsibility you sighed with relief The choice was made. No matter that you had the space all I had was a terraced home. You had the means to give much more space for a bedroom and a separate room All I could give her was a bed and a chair in my living room. Turfed out of her home, in my brothers house Because he could no longer cope. She left the only home she had ever known she had rooms to ... more

    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages None

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Childs feelings, parent neglecting his child

    A little bit of imagination goes along way in poetry, but planning goes even further. Imagine your self in this young boys shoes, and relate to what hes sayin. My feelings for you show how night time can fall, all i hear is your sound, harrasing my walls, why did you have to come? Ruin my life? Why did my dad, make you his wife? As night time falls, everything becomes a scare, all the trees, plants and walls, nothing looks so bare, everybody is nervous walking through the streets, you dont know how fast, my hearts suddenly beats. We had a good relationship, me and my dad, Did you hear the word ... more

    Advantages Advantages I wrote it

    Disadvantages Disadvantages absolutely none

    She took the chance at killing Spurred by a temporary craze Just as the blood was spilling She entered the darkest faze Now she wouldn't stop Not for subconcious mind Everyone would drop To pain she would be blind The power was too great There would be no refusal She'd chosen a card of fate That gave her death's perusal To hand pick those for slashing Was all part of the lust The knife would soon come crashing And turn them all to dust Why had her life been changed? Why had she turned to hate? She'd never been deranged Or so keen to desicrate She didn't know the answer She didn't search so low ... more
