The Irony of Life
extant unremitting
its hold
simple said

The more you give
The more you die

The more you hope
Your life in tatters lie

The more you believe
You will end shattered dreams

Simply put Trust
No one no thing Ever

For the IronyInsideLife
Is nothing but the Eternal Lie


"Speak not... nor the coming of the lord. For those who would but stab my back, around me, do abound."

So it is. Sung in forever song, your melody.

Hope...I will agree can be dangerous. Giving, too...if not done with insight. I will be here, still reading...when we are both over this.

Interesting read....but I am one of those obstinate creatures whose glass is always half-full, even when others see it as half-empty...

Always one
Sees the lining
silver my cup

is more than
always full
and more each day

For everyone else
Yea bring forth
the light tomorrow speaks

In and of All
things unknown without the dawn
of a shipwreck lives planks shredded

In blood lies AN answer
direction marks a path but to have
a house unkowingly built on QuickSand

Is more than one
man feels the days can he
retrieve his whole mist in hands fade

Not again


My thanks for reading. And your words very kind.
