I'm in the corner

I'm in the corner

I’m soul searching
I’m standing in the corner soul…. hurting
My rope came to an end
I was in the mirror looking like I lost a friend
My pain continues
Unresolved issues
I’m here selfishly crying
With these thoughts of me dying
Kneeling aint working for me
The healing…hurts for me
I’m in the corner losing my faith
How much more can I take
Love don’t live here and it hasn’t in years
Pain resides here accompanied by tears
Damn life is crazy
My haters have yet to betray me
I’m in the corner head bowed thinking…damn
Sins caused by man
I’m here soul searching
My past is behind me but I’m still…hurting
I’m fighting just to hold on
I’m no longer strong
I stand while tears fall like rain
Too much pain
I’m in the corner!

What's up Morris?

Through that mirror are we reminded, that the only person that will be our biggest inspiration in life or be our grandest opposition or demise, is he whom we find piercingly staring back at us....As a man on the outside perched and looking in, anytime you need me, consider me your friend.A hand extended to lend you, a rope twice as strong, my mission is to come and find you and delibly bring you home...Another shiny jewel in your pocket Morris, good job...

Stay strong...

Jim

Jim,

How are you? This poem here was written just closing my eyes and this was what my pen made me write. I know many people who were in this situation when they felt they were at the end of their rope and just gave up. this piece was just written over the weekend.thanks again with your supportive words

Morris

You are welcome Morris and as long as you continue doing what you do,it's sad to know all had forsaken them but you remain strong,because you now have picked up that baton and you will be the one bringing it home.....For them and on their behalf...

Take Care,

Jim

Brother Morris,

     Thanks for the congrats- homie! This piece of yours- you don't know me but We're very much alike in our pain and loneliness and the feeling that god may have forgotten us. I'm not able to do what you and a lot of other poets do- speak of my personal emotions- it hurts too much (both parents deceased by the age of 18, homelessness, drug-addicted past, 3 prison bids,- need we mention the women and broken promises?), still we come from a powerful seed. That which doesn't kill us makes us stronger. Some people may applaud your work (as if all it is is art)- I hear something deeper beneath the words. Where are you on this lonely planet? I'm in New York. Get at me.

P.S.- Have you heard from Jimmy Arnold?

Man let me tell you I could go on and on and tell you stories about my life... the in and out of prison and penitentiaries, drugs, gangs so on and so on but you know what my homie...all that shit made me the strong man I am today and when I write, I tell not only my story... I tell yours and those who lived it as well.  I like the mystery I keep about myself, that in it'self keeps me motivated to write. anyone can write a poem but it's people like me and you and the millions of other poets on this site and on others, that when they right it comes from the heart and it pure, feel me. I give praise to every last poet on here because we are all a big family with stories to tell. so congrats again my homie, that was a great piece you wrote and you deserve it, keep that good shit coming... and i am from Philadelphia

So sad, sounds like a really tough life.

You describe the pain well though.

You made a very beautiful piece, I really like it. I believed that in what ever that we are facing we should stand strong to fight against all the problem that we face. we should seek help to our Lord to help us overcome our sadness and give us strength to continue living on and forget all the bad things that happens in our life.
