Pain hurts like a dagger in the back <br />Emotions spilling over, my heart is under attack <br />Silent as a lamb, no speech heard <br />Patiently waiting, but still not a word <br />Confusion ignited, unbelief spread like a raging fire <br />Hope extinguished by my one true desire <br />Dreaming with my eyes wide open, thought I could see <br />Nightmares quickly aroused, crushing my sweet fantasies <br />Darkness is my fate, succumbed by the apathetic truth <br />Courage left me half naked with an I'm sorry excuse<br /><br />LaTasha Diane Thomas<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/learning-disappointment/
