Poise in the Storm

I've got a mind full of fury

A heart full of pain

A head full of ideas

A mouth full of blood

 

[From the wars raging inside me]

 

I've got eyes full of tears

A body full of drugs

Two ears full of music

A lifetime of scars

 

[Not on my wrist but on my soul]

 

I am me

I am you

And everyone else

Who's hurt and been hurt

 

[By the one's they once thought they loved]

I like the poem, I can relate to it for the most part, however, i hav'nt experienced with many drugs though, But I do feel that part of the process of recovering from these events is pouring your heart out through anything that inspires and drives you to express all that's lurking inside, whether by writing, music, drawing, sculpting, any of these, or anything else that allows to release that emotion in a pleasing and productive way, Again i can relate to you though.
My interests lie within expressing myself through, writing, singing, and playing piano (keyboard), these are elements for my release of all the emotion, passion and ambition that lies within.
I hope to talk with you sometime.

This write reflects life in many ways and the cycles we must complete to reach another level. I have read a few of your poems and how you reflect within releasing the pain and scars for us to read. Pain often is the creator of some great works.
