The power of words
Rogue's Den of Iniquity - Poetic Ramblings of a Total Loonie

I'se a poet and didn't know it.
Fear
1996 - 2002
I sit in a room 
colored in fear and doubt 
clutching my heart closely 
so that nobody can tread upon it 
so that nobody sees 
how I weep inside 
going mad with the anguish 
that loneliness brings 

Slowly I begin to rock 
swaying back and forth 
to some unheard rhythm 
filling my head 
with hopes and dreams 
a buzzing of sorts 
that makes me forget 
that I should fear 

First the contact 
then the loneliness that comes 
when we realize 
that we are not 
as we would like each other to be 
and go our separate ways 
into the bleak future 

Usually bitter enemies, 
sometimes friends 

Slowly we pick up 
the pieces of our hearts 
shattered on the floor 
not through anger, 
but through neccessity 
and begin to search again 

Would that I could forever 
give up the search
To be complete in myself 
so that I would never need 
the warmth of another 

Maybe then 
it wouldn't feel 
so empty 
and lonely 

Someday 
I will have the strength 
and will 
to stand alone 
and face the future
joined hand in hand with fate 
instead of love 

today is not that day...
