    the story of the lost child

     there is a clanging
    and a bong
    inside my weary head

    it makes me wish
    that it was me
    who was really dead

    asleep at last
    in deaths cold grip
    at least i would have rest

    the screaming dreams
    and the tears
    i think it would be best

    i try to hide
    within these thoughts
    but fear gives me away

    i cry out in pain
    and run from there
    to live another day

    and now i run
    forever lost
    down forbidden streets

    i cower from
    and i scream
    at everyone i meet

    please come to me
    death my only friend
    and take me in your grasp

    hold me
    comfort this lost child
    until..i breath...my last...

    nice flow and rythm your poetry has gotten really good it makes me sad to know that you can write about such stuff but the best poems are the ones that are written out of the dark crevasses of our hearts like my poem....me lost good job

    Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
