Stakes raised high, of no demise- ‘Tis fashion to be this way, Create a shell, therein ye dwell- Beyond Hope lies false façade. As shadows fall, thy form stands tall- To render his own living grave, Crucify Love’s Tale, with Hate’s sour wail- Be your own man, come judgment day. At rise of dawn, as Heathen’s spawn- You plagiarize good deeds as fronts, Sighing that you must cremate Trust- Obliterate feelings of lust and want. I beg thy remembrance, 'tis one hindrance- You must categorize true worth as so, Before loneliness confiscates life’s grate- Upon refusal to let your heart grow. Outward solidity, inward insecurity- ‘Tis naught but a waste of time, Count yourself worthy, bless security- Think twice, mayhap this be thine... Open arms can be the most fragile in the world... |

Devina~ You did a great job with this. 'I beg thy remembrance, 'tis one hindrance- You must categorize true worth as so, Before loneliness confiscates life’s grate- Upon refusal to let your heart grow.' Doesn't get much clearer than that !  Love ya' ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

Ah, hell hath no fury, Indeed... Of course the "think twice" is kind of oxymoronic in this world that gives no second chances... You've expressed your emotion well here, D. Michael |
