have promises to keep and miles to go before I sleep<br /> -Robert Frost<br /> We learn from history that we learn nothing from history<br /> -GB Shaw<br /> &quot;Love looks not with the eyes but with the mind.&quot; O Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo?&quot; &quot;The course of true love never did run smooth.&quot; Love is not love that alters when it alteration finds.&quot; &quot;It is better to be hated for who you are than to be loved for what you are not.&quot; &quot;If you judge people, you have no time to love them.&quot;<br /> ... -Romeo and Juliet<br /> <br /> Our integrity sells for so little, but it is all we really have. It is the very last inch of us, but within that inch, we are free. <br /> - Allan Moore<br /> <br /> Vi Veri Veniversum Vivus Vici (By the power of truth I, while living, have conquered the universe)<br /> - Faust<br /> <br /> &quot;Conceal me what I am, and be my aid<br /> For such disguise as haply shall become<br /> The form of my intent.&quot; <br /> -Twelfth Night 1.2.53-55<br /> <br /> <br /> There is only one sin, only one. And that is theft. Every other sin is a variation of theft....When you kill a man, you steal a life. You steal his wife&#039;s right to a husband, rob his children of a father. When you tell a lie, you steal someone&#039;s right to the truth. When you cheat, you steal the right to fairness<br /> - Khaled HosseiniSee More


At times I also want to quit
I am sick and tired of all this
I try to hold back my tears and sit
silently trying to remember the times of bliss
but it is so hard &amp; I hate myself for it
No one understands and no one really cares
I want to end it
finish it once and for all
because this life is like several terrible nightmares
Its been enough now I cannot crawl
&amp; try to reach the deadline which is nowhere near

Its a long race &amp; my legs are bleeding
I may fall down and never get up I fear
She - the unfaithfulness is feeding
eating my flesh, my soul
Drowning me in the burden of things
over which I have no control
I am no fairy I have no wings
why does she expect so much from me
I am just what I am
Why does'nt she let it be...


The author's comments:
Well surely I am not a very good poet (or at least that is what I think) but I really like this poem. I want honest opinion about this one.
