Poetry
Inside
By laya08
23 June 2006
Looked upon your mirror
Pondered your reflection
But inside you scream
You scream for that perfection

Taking what you believe must be corrected
Wanting to fix and change
Seeing what's wrong
Wondering how strange

How strange it must feel
To be lost
To feel useless
Falling to the floor
Crying in darkness

But in the end you tell yourself
You say you must be strong
You know beauty comes from inside
So you understand and move on

You get up and rise to your feet.
You go back to the mirror
And once again you feel complete

No more tears, No more hatred
Nothing at all
You go on and live your life
No matter if you fall

Strong writing
Written by Leo (573 comments posted) 23rd June 2006
Very thoughtful piece, i'm sure these are themes that you've touched on before, so it feels like you've invested a lot of yourself in this 
 
Thanks for sharing your writing
Inner Strength

A strong piece that shows the need to have an inner power, an inner determination, no matter what happens, no matter what is seen outside, you have to hold on to your inner believe. 
 
A very good poem. 
 
Well done 
 
best wishes
