    Forced

     I'm being pushed through time against my will
    Pushed until I die.
    I had no say if I wanted to live
    So, tell me, what will have I?
    I'm being forced to breathe this air
    Or else I'm forced to die
    There was no 'if you want live come forth
    And say I'
    It was more like 'Here's your round trip ticket
    From here to life and back .
    And I'll give you some advice, don't worry, you see,
    This life won't last.
    But now I have something
    That was not forced on me,
    Something good might come out of life,
    I'm starting to believe
    I have fallen in love
    Given my entire heart to him
    And yet, you see,
    This life is still making my thoughts grim
    I'm so afraid of losing
    That single thing I chose
    I do not wish to leave
    Or life to come to a close
    It seems as though we had no choice but to live
    And we wonder why people can be so negative
    Then the minute we have something
    We think is worth living for
    It seems that time just flies by again
    And exits right out the door.

    When I think of when I was 16-oh- it was so hopelessly filled with exciting chaos. You will change so much in thoughts,values,and love...be careful. Give all, but always be ready for it all to be gone,without a hint of why. The answers come much later. Never stop writing-it is your sanity in an insane world. Very good write-from one who has walked those shoes.

    Thank you very much for the advice. i'm also glad that you liked the poem. =) I find it interesting that the word love can cause more pain than war sometimes, can cripple people, and even take their souls from them... it's rather sad. I'm sorry you have been in those shoes, as i am sorry that all of us could very well have a chance in those shoes. thank you again.

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.
