If the shoe fits?..

If the shoe fits?..

A Poem by micky

You never think its going to be you
until that day...
That day your foot fits the shoe
Until the moment your concentration begins to sway

When your'e problems weigh you down   
When your'e shoulders cant bare anymore 
When your head is to heavy from your crown
When you lose you morals,waking up on a strangers floor

You lost now...
Never to be found
You would question "How?"
But your mouth is to dry to make a sound

Withdrawal...
Shakes...
 The bugs begin to crawl...
Your mind racing,your heart aches

Disappointment...Shame...
questions...Pain...
Self hatred...a sick little game...
Left with nothing...ONCE again...

It must be about the time when we are dragged out of our comfort zone to face a harder realm of life. There we stumble, doubt our potentials but after hitting our head to the walls, somehow we emerge, and cross the barrier, advancing ourselves with a feeling of overall progress of self. The foot gets bigger with experience, and keeps fitting a bigger shoe every time. Nice poetry friend.

This entire stanza truly resonates with me in some way:

"When your'e problems weigh you down
When your'e shoulders cant bare anymore
When your head is to heavy from your crown
When you lose you morals,waking up on a strangers floor"

This was written very well. Nicely done!

ahh this abandoned feeling is the most difficult to cure, we only resort to various stuff to make us feel better.... I liked the flow and the first verse...

A dark portrayal.
Unfortunately, feelings I once knew only too well.
I suppose, Micky, when life gets to be more pain and regret than anything approaching enjoyment,
abusers--hopefully--begin to move toward less suffering. Hopefully.
Hard-hitting piece of work, young poetess!

I agree...
Thank you Frankie J i really appreciate it
What a well-written piece. The repetition in the second stanza emphasizes greatly the meaning of the poem. I feel the emotional pain as the last stanza concludes.

"Left with nothing...ONCE again..." - my favorite line of the whole work

Great job my friend.
