Here I stand....















Here I stand all alone for countless reasons
Here I stand without no being for endless seasons,

Here I stand smiling in all my sorrow
Here I stand waiting for a happier tomorrow,

Here I stand with no "inspiration" to ape
Here I stand without a vision to gape,

Here I stand loving her but all in vain
Here I stand unruffled by this draining pain,

Here I stand in disbelief thinking all this cant be true
Here I stand lost in thoughts so up in the air unlike the drops of dew,

Here I stand brutally wounded yet tightly wound
Here I stand all alone for countless reasons.

it is a very good poem. did u intend it to be from the point of the tree? the one in the picture?

Here I stand loving her but all in vain...

is "her" the earth?

remove comment moderation- no fun that way.

the first six lines i identify with, and thats the reason i like them a lot. i think the problem is that though i read ure poems when u first asked me too, i dint identify with them and thus dint know what to say.. u come up with some very interesting lines such as "Here I stand brutally wounded yet tightly wound..."
very nice my long found friend :)
lose the dot dots though.. i know theyre amazing things that speak for u, but they do little for the poem and aren't acceptable punctuation. as far as i know
