   I long to stand
   on my own again
   Become something new
   to those who knew me when
   To change in their eyes
   A new desguise
   To molt from the skin
   of that which I'm in
   Who am I?

Welcome Helena!! What an intriguing first poem. I'm sure you'll like it here in passions in the dark forum. I'll be looking for more

Welcome indeed Helena*S*

Very good post and thought provoking, I wonder Who am I??

Maybe in time, we'll know who we are.

The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, not the kindly smile, not the joy of companionship; it is the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when he discovers that someone believes in him and is willing to trust him with his friendship."

I liked your poem alot, but there was one problem i had. Why change in thier eyes? I used to think like that then realized if i did that who would i be in my eyes? A fake? It was not worth it and lead to a bad time in my life becuase i wanted to change in thier eyes. In fact i have a poem on it in my little black book that i might post one day if i feel that way again. But well done and keep up the nice work

There's a peace inside us all
Let it be your friend
It will help you carry on
In the end
There's a peace inside us all
