Snypiuer Posted November 4, 2003 Report Posted November 4, 2003 This is the voice that God gave me. "That's funny." You might think. For an athiest to say. But, in my futile attempt. To find some thing. Greater then me. It's all I can find. That might make me believe. For in my head. My voice is strong. Powerful. A voice that leads. My words precise. Melodious. With a crystal ring. But when I speak. I stu...stu...stutter. And...........................hesitate. At the most inopportune times. When written My words mispelled. I'm lucky if they some times rhyme. So I must apologize. For what you hear. And read. For you will never hear my true voice. Or be awed by its majesty. I am saddened. For you. For all I can offer. Is the voice that God gave me.
Justin Silverblade Posted November 4, 2003 Report Posted November 4, 2003 I completely agree - I've been just there. In fact, I live right there. An absolutely wonderful poem. I loved it. Simple, delicate, beautiful. I've read some dark and dreary poems, some light and magestic ones too. Ones that had "epic" written all over them, and some that were simple one liners. But it's funny how sometimes, when you least expect to be reading it, greatness strikes you right in the face. It's refreshing. I haven't read a poem like this, one that I truly like, for a long time. I mean that too - it's not blowing smoke. It was a real treat, at just the right moment. Thanks! - Justin
Peredhil Posted November 4, 2003 Report Posted November 4, 2003 This ties into a lot of thoughts I've been having lately (although I've a head-start as I do believe in God already.) And I think that's all I'm going to say on that.

Kalypso Posted November 4, 2003 Report Posted November 4, 2003 What a truthful realization that not many want to face.
