I think this poem can appropriately be applied to this forum

[ShadowsfeaR]

"Although she feeds me bread of bitterness,
And sinks into my throat her tiger's tooth,
Stealing my breath of life, I will confess
I love this cultured hell that tests my youth.
Her vigor flows like tides into my blood,
Giving me strength erect against her hate,
Her bigness sweeps my being like a flood.
Yet, as a rebel fronts a king in state,
I stand within her walls with not a shred
Of terror, malice, not a word of jeer.
Darkly I gaze into the days ahead,
And see her might and granite wonders there,
Beneath the touch of Time's unerring hand,
Like priceless treasures sinking in the sand."

-Claude McKay

To deep for me,
I cannot see,
for it is too deep,
for me.

My pain lingers,
like lingerie
I cannot see, it is too deep,
for me.

I cannot see,
because it is too deep,
I'm in the depths,
I have wept.

For I cannot see,
I began to weep,
It is too deep,
too deep to see.

There is nothing ahead,
there is nothing dead,
There is nothing lost,
Nothing earned,

for It is too deep,
I began to weep.
For I began to weep,
I could not see.

My tears envisioned,
A past too deep,
A past too deep, for me.
i could not see.

And on that day,
I shed a tear,
Because it was too deep,
too deep for me.
