Fatal Heart...down to the limit
   beating.......beating.......still until it's nil
Never while you sever all procrastinating will
Serving up confections that will ulcerate your mind
Masqueraded poison in the morsel that you find
Pendulating reason in dichotomous disguise
The clock is ticking out on your impending dire demise
So you scramble while you ramble through excuses why you play
The game's another gamble you haven't got the funds to pay
Love is more than just desire...a fire compared to spark
You'll stumble through the jumble as you manufacture Dark
You paint your own denial with an amputated hand,
for your senses are on trial in a non-existent land
Cruelty confined within a deprivated glove,
for the kindnesses you carry
   don't own the slightest bit of Love

Street Heart, This poem says to me that the person who inspired it, not only didn't have a clue as to the real meaning of love but also managed to delude themselves into believing that they di. Am I right? I love the way you express  yourself.

I can't begin to tell you how I needed to read this incredible poem today! I have such a one in my life now, but not for long...for I too have seen the terrible truth...Ellie

A friend hears the song in my heart, and sings it to me when my memory fails.
