I am really into poetry. I thought I'd share some of it here with you people. So here it goes.

What Happens To Me?
By: Owen (aka JP)
My life was easy, my life was great,
Until I lost a battle with fate,
It almost killed me, it was too much to bear,
It was like they didn�t even care,

Divorce.

I couldn�t stand it, I wanted to die,
I thought it would kill me, I couldn�t help but cry,
I thought I was the problem, I thought it was me,
I thought that I was the key,

Divorce.

They said they�d be best friends, but what does that mean,
For honesty�s not one thing I�ve seen,
They weren�t abusive, there was no violence,
There was just a lot of silence,

Divorce.

They�ll be happy, away from each other,
They might even try to find another lover,
The only thing that I don�t see,
What happens to me?

This one I wrote after my parents got divorced this summer. I wrote it because I'm a strong beliver in expressing emotions on paper (or in this case, a computer screen *LOL*).

Please feel free to post comments about it if you wish.

Regards,
JP

Beautiful, comrade.

Divorce is a nasty thing. I haven't experienced it personally...but almost...

Anyhow! It was a really nice poem.

good poem, i like it, this is one i wrote not to long ago and my parents been divorced for 7 years.....:
"Saddness."

Torn and lost,
It comes at a cost.
Mom and Dad
It's all making me sad.
My life is like my dreams,
It all falls apart at the seams.
Must I live with just one?
It seems they are done.
So fun, all those years.
Now they bring me to tears.
I was so small,
But I stood tall.
This brought my lonelyness.
This is my sadness.
