Complimented Past!

[Eric]

The mirror does not look so good ... As I stare into my eyes
I thought I had this under control ... But here is where it lies
All the anquish, self control, the triggers in my mind
I convinced myself; that I could stand ... To be the one I find
But now I find; I'm not so sure ... I am proud of who I have become
I feel it creep back in my life .... The things I have ran from
Crawling taunting through my mind ... I feel I will lose control
I feel it start to fall apart .... This image I had stole
I can not help but feel so angry ... I can't have what I deserve
Why do I have to pay again ... For things in my life; I had to serve
Frustration takes ahold of me ... Complimented by disgust
All the pains I have to face ... I feel they are unjust
But here they are; for me to face .... as I lose something I love
I am walking on the edge you see ... all I need is just a shove

WOW! I must say I can relate to this so very well...just remember, no matter how difficult something gets, you will get through it and become a better person because of it and I believe you are one who can take a hardship and turn into something others can learn from...continue to write...you are very talented. You write with deep conviction and emotion...every line you write conveys an important message or image that stirs one senses and makes your reader say, "WOW! I've been there!"
