Silent drop fall from my eyes Releasing the pain I feel inside Trapped within myself I search for the strength to find some help Never letting anyone see The pain that I hide deep within me Silent drops are falling but no one ever hears me calling Lost inside a body That doesn't let me live I struggle everyday To give all I have to give Silent drops are flowing You have no way of knowing What it's like to be me I just want to be free Suffocating in my sleep As I try to rest in bed Fearing in my mind I might end up dead Silent drops are falling And no one ever hears a sound For I only let them fall When no one is around One more day A few more steps I have to keep on going But when, tell me when Will the silent drops stop falling...

I am so sorry for your pain but always know that there are other mothers out there that carries the same pain and heart ache and I am one of those mother's, I lost my little one 1-1-95 one of my hubby's ex- girlfriends attached me and I went into premature labor and nothing has ever been done about it, my daughter name was Faith, thats all I had to hold on to was Faith untill she took her last breath in my arms.

Nobody Knows Nobody knows the danger I've seen, Nobody knows that I can be mean, Nobody knows the heart ache I've had, Nobody knows the good or the bad, I'm living the life that I have been dealt, But I can not live it, without His help, So here I am, putting my trust in the Lord, Because of His gift that I cannot afford, Eternal life is the gift that I speak of, It's offered to all and comes from His love, Nobody knows how much time we have left, Nobody knows when there will be theft, Nobody knows when the thief will come, Nobody knows but His only Son By Sandy P Copyright ©2003 Sandy P

You made me weep for nearly an hour! This surely sums up my life. Thank you for making it more lovely through your gift of poetry! Rusty

I am but an image Definable only by me And those whom surround me: Within the company of others I wait And watch with hopeful eyes My reflection overpowering And anything but wise A saddened gaze fixed upon mine Mouth turned instinctively downward Heart mimicking the movements Yet in truth there is nothing keeping me grounded Seeking friendly faces in A crowd of painful glares Their obvious discomfort being guided By their stares Worry lines marked deep in my brow Independently defining my age When a person whom views themselves better than me I feel an abounding rage My body is not thin and my face Is round as well Perhaps the many people only see What my features seem to tell As if I have no feelings Or a decent side of me I guess to some That is how I will always be Long Auburn hair hiding The roundness of my face Something I have learned shame from Like I am some sort of disgrace Yet underneath this weight Is a woman full of cheer Too bad most will never realize For they see me as something to fear I will belong No matter what others see as wrong And in doing so I will help them see That obesity is not catchy It does not rub off It will not spread like a cold It cannot be donated Or at least that's what I've been told Within the bindings of my body Is a soul and heart that's true So next time you mock and poke fun Imagine the tables turned on you
