(NEW POEM) Growing Up

As I get older
life gets harder
hating things
I used to love
loving things
I used to hate
facing things
I'm not ready to face
making decisions
I'm not ready to make
asking questions
I cant answer
its time to face the facts
I'm growing up.

im getting published?!?!?!?!?

my recent poem, if i could slow down time, has gotten editors choice in a contest and will be published in their book of poems and is currently posted on the website along with a few more of my entries. view my newly found "professional" talent @ www.poetry.com thanks!

hi!!

i havent said anything 4 a long time so hi!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i will be writing more soon!!!

-biblebabe-

the answers to the questions

i look around to find
that once again
I'm alone and hurting inside

I'm lost in this world
and no one hears my cries
here with only me myself and i

i want to say how i feel
i want to let it out
i keep on searching
but my feelings cant be found

for once i find no answers
to the meanings of my words
i know that God is with me
but his voice can not be heard

Lord i know you love me
but i hurt so very bad
i know your with me always
and i know you always have

its easy to say i understand
but its very hard to do
i don't know where my life is going
but i know I've got to count on you

your my only hope
of getting through this pain
i hand you every tear i cry
Lord use them for your gain

i don't know where life's journey
is gonna take me next
i don't know if tomorrow
I'll take my final breath

i don't know why
i don't understand
but maybe if i don't know
is why i let you take my hand

maybe all my questions
aren't meant to be answered
but maybe your love
was the answer all along
