You've come a long way...

[Grrrl]

Still the pain,
Still the tears,
Still the words,
Echo in my ears.

Still the passion,
Still silent cries,
Still a smile,
To disguise.

Still dreaming,
Still not real,
Still can't numb,
This wound won't heal.

Still the memories,
Still the love,
Still I pray,
To the Lord above.

Still stubborn,
Still head strong,
Still think I'm right,
When I'm so wrong.

Still hiding,
Still locked away,
Still myself,
Come what may...

Oooo. I loved that last line. This is definently an A+ poem.
I wish I could write such good poetry...
