Question: POEM! What does it mean to you!?!!?
I need to know if it means the same to everyone else as it does to me!. So just tell me what you think it means!.

For years trapped in the dark
Of this deep, murky lake
Being difficult to embark
My way out of this massive mistake

For the first time in years
Always trapped in pure black
A glimpse of light has appeared
And I’m not going back!.

Spent far too much time
Sulking in the past
To the light I will climb
And see the happiness at last

Hostility and bitterness
I could not help to show
But within me it exists
The good lost long ago

You were my light
Which drew me out of my prison
You made everything seem right
And because of you I have risen

Out of this lake, my troubled childhood
Which should be left behind
You never understood
But still helped me to find

That there is good out there too
In which I’d been blind to all these years
I owe this all to you
For lifting me out of my fears!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

That is so beautiful~~I am confused on your ending about being cheezy!?!?!? You are a talented poet I truly mean that!. What that poem meant to me~~~~
someone had been lost but now they are found~~~
someone special brought you back from a place that you hide perhaps unknowingly~~and that is OK more people then you would ever realize hide, but you have lifted your blinders and you are releasing your fears~~there is no shame in this!. This is a moment of truth that you should be extremely proud of! Don't allow others to make your happiness find it your self and the world will be yours again~~never stop writting that is your out let and you may surprise your self in your personal self discovery in the process~~good luck~~whoever you are you are a special soul dont ever forget that~~you are beautiful~~it doesn't matter how a person looks on the out side if there is nothing inside never forget that~~~never forget who you truly are find that inner child that has the light stored away safe inside of you it is still there you have to do some soul searching to find it all again~~lady of the lakeWww@QuestionHome@Com

i think it says that this girl was abused in her childhood but she thought i was her fault so she went into depression but then she met someone who said that it wasn't her fault and she should leave the past behind and now she is coming out of her depression +D!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

such bad and unloving things happened that they were in a pit of dark dispare, misery, and goom, afraid of pain, until thank goodness someone or something came along and showed them love, goodness, something wonderful!.!.god bless!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

It sounds like a poem of someone who found a new enlightenment in their life!. An escape from a past that was not made up of good choices!. It shows that we can all change !.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I think it means
A person drowning in past mistakes/life and all of their fears!.!.!.
But somebody came and even though they didn't understand,they were still there for that person to keep them from dying in the lake of fears,mistakes,and worries!.!.!.!.!.that's just a brief description of what I thought!!
