Pain and Confusion
When time makes you feel stuck on one floor,
the world makes no sense anymore.
Support you once had no longer exists,
you walk around clenching your fists.
You can't sleep because your mind is racing,
there's too much anxiety you are facing.
The ones you want don't want you anymore,
love has closed the very last door.
The turmoil, ugliness, bitterness and strife,
just add on to this mixed up life.

I felt this way before joining justsayhi...now I have met some really nice women and have a better outlook on life! Thanx justsayhi! This will be published this winter!!!!

I went to PublishAmerica.cot I was so happy I got a whole dollar for 50 poems. That is one penny for every two poems. I was so excited I went out and bought a diet pepsi with the money.
