i am. emotionally upset. <br />i am just like one of the three blind mice. <br />i could see a good thing if it slapped me twice, <br />i am. emotionally upset. <br />i've been starving for 18 years <br />and i couldn't smell a dream if it was 8 inches from my face, <br />i am. emotionally upset. <br />i wouldn't hear victory call unless it was as loud as my tears fall, <br />i am. emotionally upset. <br />i can taste love so bitter and sweet <br />but i couldn't taste destiny if it was stuck between my teeth, <br />i am. emotionally upset. <br />my whole life is falling apart <br />not even my granny's crys could touch my heart, <br />i am. emotionally upset. <br />i hear many different whispers on many different days <br />they all say the same damn thing, <br />that victory isn't that far away. <br />they say that one day i will bask in glory <br />so keep my head high <br />but there is no bask in my soul. some days i wish... i wasn't alive, <br />i am, emotionally disturbed. <br />there are somethings in my life that i just can't justify <br />like how i lay in my bed and just cry, <br />i am. emotionally discontent. <br />i'm just ready to go home... <br /> <br /> <br />November 7,2004<br /><br />CTR 2005<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/emotionally-upset/
