  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Hidden face_Hurting heart

Guest
I'm feeling helpless;
It's looking hopeless.
I wonder if I'll ever find
The friend that stays inside my mind.
I keep my tears bottled up inside;
My feelings I am forced to hide,
But the bottle is full
And I've got no shoulder to cry on.
They can't see it, but it's there:
The pain too hard to bear.
Constant pressure, my head it pounding.
I want to break down, but I can't show my weakness.
Eyes are dry,
They need to cry,
But "tears cried alone are wasted emotion"
And no one is there.
I've got no comfort to obtain,
Just constantly drowning soul rain.
This self inflicted mask
Is killing my spirit,
But I can't tell anyone,
'Cause they just can't hear it.
There's too many people depending on me to be strong,
So I pretend there's nothing wrong,
But, "Yeah, sure, I'm okay."
It's not like you'd care anyway,
That I've stopped living though I'm young,
that the laughs the slip off my tongue
are lies.
Don't act so surprised.
Just look in my eyes,
You'll realize
that I'm wearing a disguise.
This happy, intelligent person isn't me.
Why can't you see?




Well, if you made it to the end of that, I'm sorry. It's just some free verse, no pattern whatsoever scribblings...but they're true.
