    I've spent a while wrestling,

    those bloody hormones to the ground,

    tying them, twisting them, to submission,

    but they always know when I've found

    something that starts to make them race

    and fly through my insides

    I stuffed them deep and kicked them down....

    but they squeezed out of the sides......

    True Begginings

    From depths of cold depravity,

    And sometimes hidden light

    Comes a wind that blows so suddenly

    As a warning to those who might

    Hope to find its resting place

    In the souls for which it fights

    And wish away its beautiful sadness

    Into a world long since said its goodnight

    It's the power within the Everyman

    The power that asks the question

    "Do I fear because I am afraid?"

    Or do I fear, because with this fear

    I can silence those sounds that scare me

    And wake up from those dreams that show me

    That path that has always truly layed before me

    Although I do not know my way through it's darkness

    It matters not

    For out of this world without place and without ending

    can come the only

    True Begginings

    Be still my heart says I

    My BIG heart, in the manner of Tom Hanks

    says "m'ok" (with a shrug)

    and so I am dead

    And So it Ends.

    My life began a clouded mass,
    Wherein no joy was seen.
    It lingered on a Summer breeze,
    But nothing waited there.

    The leaves began to go their way,
    Whispering and brown,
    Until the Autumn fell to snow
    A silent carpet glowed.

    And in that glow of sheer delight
    A robin had afront
    To make a home amid my eaves,
    Before they crumbled to the ground.

    I had a teacher once who told me that poetry is the most emotional form of writing there is. I've always envied and admired people who can express themselves so well in such an emotional medium.

    Good job.
