my heart breaks
when i see people
that are not all that they could
be;
that don't see all their
potentiality

and then i wonder
in the eyes of [certain] others

is this
me?

[[...is my heart breaking from the force of
love
or pity?
if i were god
it would break from
love.
but i am human.

i think my heart breaks
pure.
but does it?]]

potentiality should just be 'potential'.
Other than that, it's good. Short and simple, but to the point.

hehe. do you know that kids song that some people sang in like children's church and stuff? no, you probably don't b/c i can't even give you the name of it to help you out.....BUT i do have a point.... it has the word "potentiality" in it...and i thought of the fact that it probably is not a real word before i added it...and the fact that if it was, i might not even be using it correctly....but, for some reason, i liked the added 'flair,' persay, of the extra syllables....and thus, i decided, what the heck, it's my poem, i'll endure the wrath of daniel and such others criticizing the fact that i'm not a "gramac-tician" ;)

but thx. i like that you like words and are smart enough to learn big ones, and pick out made up ones by said people like me. hehe.
