Remorse

Amongst the crowd, I wander
Lifeless in intimidation
Solitary confinement of hallucination
Quivering orifice upon features
The young must continue
Alone within the cruel coldness
A vast mass of people
All unforgiving; cold
Where only the strongest roam
The survival of the worthy
The fall of the hopeless
The beginning holds no task
And from the end, no one is to last

------- Author's Notes -------

This poem - Eh, I suppose it was in feeling of an event occuring upon our school today, April 23, 2004. People with guns, young people downed in hatred, awaiting; stalking in the shadows until their pray is amongst them and once so - The end for us all, whether witness or not, it is in the end. Sad sorrow for those who endure it. This poem is for us.

mm...deep Scorpio

Hey Scorpio! Now that was one deep poem....
I mean deep down to the bone...This poem really stands out! Yeah, if only we could make this world a better place ourselves.....If only we some people would put aside their hate, discrimination, bullying, fighting, shooting......not only that raping and killing innocent people for no reason whatsoever...That's definitely a good poem of what's happening in today's world...Don't get depressed Scorpio, because there's a lot of people who are willing to take the load off your back, so you don't have to bear it all...Have fun, and enjoy your spring day! (SMILE Through the dark days, for they'll soon have no other choice but to pass away) Lovely poem again, Scorpio!

Thank you

I wanted the reader to understand the viewer's point of view in the situation, especially when involved in something that serious. It's not that 'if they would' but more or less the face that they -don't- which is the problem. I don't get depressed over it, I get depressed it's even happening. It makes a certain hollow feeling about how everything is in the real world- How even children are becoming so hateful, they will shoot that gun and be the murderer of someone innocent. It's just plain sad to see that. If only life weren't so complex, it would all be less strenuous and easier. Thank you very much, your compliment made me smile. =)
