Damian Murphy
In trying, there is every chance you might fail.
In not, there is no chance you will ever prevail.

For if you do not take a chance or at least try
There is every chance life will just pass you by.

I love how you fit right in with all the poets here.

You might say you aren't an artist, but you are so wrong.

You would think one would get used to it after a while

The constant movement,
up then down.
down then up

and yet, it's always such a shock when i hit the bottom
yet again

when all the chemicals in your brain wear off,


are you really the person i thought you were?

I try to hold my tears as long as I can,
So that I can drown out the world in front of me.

love me
I write to free myself
from the demons inside me that entangle me in their monstrous webs
I write because the words listen
to all my problems big and small
I write to feel
the feelings i cannot put together in my own head
I write to dream*
of the person i hope to become
I write to forget
the memories of him that haunt me*
I write to remember
the memories of us that made me
I write for hope
*so that i may look forward to the next day
