♥ I've made mistakes in my life. i've let people take advantage of me, and i accepted way less than i deserve. But, i've learned from my bad choices, and even though there are some things i can never get back and people who will never be sorry. i'll know better next time and i wont settle for anything less than i deserve. ♥


Across the misty river,
she looks but can't find,
the memory that leaves a
black hole in her mind.

She searches and searches,
for the memory that is lost.

If only she could make it across,
if only she could see what was false.

Who is she?

She can not seem to find.
She feels so blind.

When will she know?
How can it help?

Across the misty river,
she is in search for
HERSELF.

"... How dreary to be somebody-- How public like a frog;
To tell one's name; the livelong June-- To an admiring bog"
-Emily Dickinson

I really love this poem, but I totally agree; it lacks flow. My advice is- don't always make poetry rhyme, sometimes it butchers creativity. It almost seems like that's what happened here.
