Lance Posted April 21, 2008 Report Share Posted April 21, 2008 Perhaps one for many of you, but written about my own personal stance.ConflictWhat do you dowhen your hopes and dreams,conflict with thoseof your fantasies?You want to hurtbut you live to love,you make an effortbut never enough.What do you dowhen you follow it through?Do you hide your tracksto prevent the truth?Do you feel inside,the sickness and shame,and promise yourselfthat "never again"?What do you dowhen you feel it coming?Do you try enoughto prevent it showing?You know that it's sickand you know that it's wrong,yet you still proceed,you still carry on.What do you dowhen the thing you crave,you cannot have,for the way you behave?Could you trust yourselfto show your love,and restrain your wantto hurt so much?What would you do, if the thing you want to hurt, is the same thing you wish to love and cherish? Which one wins...Peace, Lance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lance Posted April 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 Thanks you three. Heh, strange reading that back. Wrote it in about 15 mins last night. Had a few things challenging my patience, but decided to try and fight it with something creative. It kinda worked...but nothing ever lasts.Peace, Lance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lance Posted April 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 Hey March...yeah, it helps. But I find that I ultimately end up losing anyway, well I do anyway. But I put up a fight first you know? I'm feeling a bit provoked again tonight, so I may end up writing something else.But yeah you're right, writing is great for challenging yourself and whatever it is that's pissing you off.Peace, Lance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
