Take my hand Follow me Are you alone in this world? You need not be Sometimes you just Have to roll the dice Take a chance Pay the price Don't take time To count the cost A love not acknowledged Is a love lost A love is born Tender and dear Fate takes hold Turns love to fear Grasping at The empty strands Sifting away Like grains of sand Won't you Come out and play Love is a game It's a brand new day But as in Spring The heart blossoms anew To love again? A time to choose Crossroads ahead One lonely and dark One bright as day On which will you embark? To spend a lifetime With out love An empty space Wings of a dove Take my hand You will see Those that are alone Need not be Follow your heart It won't lead you astray Listen to yourself You'll find a way To a love that Cannot, will not be lost You alone no more Loneliness the sole cost -Do not think...Act- Thomas |

wow!!...the rhythm and rhyme scheme of this one kicked @$$!...besides the creative ways you found to say each connected thought...I'm quite entertained at this very moment. Jeremy "Time is the matter, and in a matter of that all wounds will heal and all scars shall fade." |

This is a beautiful poem! I love the rhyme scheme, but I can't say that I agree with your last line... acting without thinking can result in a lot of awful things, especally in love.
