• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Quicksand

The Fight

A battle rages in my head,
And it won't end until I'm dead.
I try to run but it's no use,
My horror past is on the loose.

Once again my past repeats,
Like a drum my heart beats,
As I travel back through life,
And the memories cut just like a knife.

The dreams they come to me at night,
And they leave me soaking wet with fright.
As I sweat from every pore,
I shiver and pray please, please no more..

In a crowded mall I flash back,
Of life for real I lose track,
As the years zoom by and I must fight,
The past I dread with all my might.

I want to hide from all this pain,
That seems to sicken all my brain.
I want to die, I want to live..
I have nothing else to give.

God, please help me find a way,
To heal and face another day.
Lord above please help me see,
That one day I'll be free...

I must hold on and do Your will,
If I'm sure of Heaven still.
God, I pray you make me whole,
So I'm at peace with my soul.
 
Quicksand~ Very touching with all the raw emotions expressed. This is no doubt a very dark and somber poem. Yet, in its darkess, we also see glimpes of light, beauty and hope.
Thank you for sharing this. I loved reading your blog.
Never, ever give up!
Remain strong in your Faith~
