"Be the change you wish to see in the world" -M.Ghandi


Continuous lies
Feeling fragile from the fear
I'm looking for a place
so I can heal

He's a veteran in hurting
That, I just found
Feeling solitary
Even with people around

They said he was a good person
But it was a myth
HE cancelled my oxygen
Now I can't breathe

I made it up for English class. It has some of the vocabulary words the teacher gave us.

&quot;il piu nell&#039; uno,&quot; (according to Emerson, an Italian expression for beauty)<br /> <br /> &quot;Unable are the loved to die, for love is immortality&quot; ~Emily Dickinson<br /> <br /> &quot;The deeper that sorrow carves into your being, the more joy you can contain&quot; <br /> ~Kahlil Gibran

This is a good poem, and an interesting idea. It illustrates the fragile nature of humankind, despite its apparent simplicity. Well done.
