. Tonight I’ve become a liar And now it’s my real name I die under friendly fire I lose your one-sided game It’s clever of you, my dear Such wisdom I never met You want me to be your mirror And wear a box on your head I felt, it was so exciting To hear you can see me through But you seem to be long-sighted I guess you don’t know the truth You catch all the things behind me So clear, every blade of grass My thoughts - what a marvel hides them Perhaps I was made of glass So long I believe your feeling And fancy - you know me best Tonight you don’t wanna hear me And God came to be my guest I called him to ask for patience He doesn't like playing dice So I deal the cards… Relations keep misty before my eyes But I put my eights on sevens And try to assemble the whole Let God judge me there in heaven At least He can see my soul . 28/10/2013 . |

Fantastic poetic composition, dear Galina. Deep pondering here, even though painful it might be. Margherita "Love is the One who masters all things; |

Deep and cutting words, but you do have the truth of it. God sees your soul. We can see glimpses of its beauty in your writing, but only God knows the true extent. I feel your pain. Michael |

Thank you, Michael, for your kind words! My last belief that there is the truth in spite of all our misunderstandings. |

Galina, I think I understand all you are saying. You are very wise and though the truth hurts, it is best to know it, accept it and face it – not just ourselves, but everyone else as well, but not everyone can see it or wants to see it or believes it even when it is right in front of them. Your relationship with God is far more important than your relationship with anyone and God brings more solace than anyone else can. If people can’t see you for who you really are, then they don’t know you properly. It is best to choose your partner and your friends from those who really know you. I know that some of what I said above wasn’t in your poem, but it flowed on in my thoughts as a result of what you said in your poem. I am sorry you are hurting, but your healing starts from a core position of the truth. Owl |

Thank you, James, for reading and replying! Thank you, Owl! I'm glad to see you here  You're right, truth is the main thing as well as love, and since I consider God to be my love inside, my own conscience, I think that it's the most important guiding line - to live according to that source of truth. People may blame, people may be wrong, they know not everything, and you may be mistaken too, but you know what you know and what you meant. Your conscience is not easy to deceive, because it knows you inside out indeed, and it's your only judge. |

I grew tired of having to explain myself to people that didn't really matter anyhow. Only God knows your heart and soul and that's good enough for me Peace to you..... [This message has been edited by EmmaRose (11-21-2013 08:01 PM).] |
