Amidst black roses

0 posted 2006-06-06 05:22 PM



As i scream and howl
in this lonely cell
i realise that my life, my love
is trully but my hell

drifting in the river of souls
naught can i do but admire my life's goals
they burned all that good and well
and resulted in me that fell

at the gates of hell i wait
and ponders my life's inevitable fate
as i stare at the hate, the storm
i see myself so bent and worn

and so at last my end has come
and the darkness has all but won
i cast a last glace up above
and see that cursed white dove

I felt this one deeply; I could relate to it.

Hate is stupid.  It doesn't ever do anything productive, but destructive to the hater and not always, but also the hated.  Love is pretty cool though.

id agree that hate is silly. but its one of the few things i have. but true as they say. hate often hurts the hatee more than the hated

I disgree hate is not stupid hate allows us the mirror of love

what use is good without evil

Hate is also a survival tool

I hate only those who do me harm

To not hate those who do you harm is to risk making the same mistake twice and that is a fools choice.

That aside the poem was v. effective in imagery without being to wordy which is a crime i enjoy petrpetrating occasionaly. The only critique if you want to call it that is perhaps a quick read through before posting for spelling mistakes and maybe you'll find a way you may prefer to say something i don't normally do this but i wrote a poem that way once and to me it was one of my favourites. It was a little to distressing so actually had to be removed from the open pages so no-one but myself actually ever read it but it was a useful learning tool. wow this is possibly the longest non-poem reply i've ever given.

I went to the desert on a horse with no name, it felt good to get out of the rain.
