Take me, Love, and plunder me; leave me by Life’s road as dead. Good Samaritan, walk on by, or lay a rock beneath my head. Leave me to die beside the path; I’ll raise no anguished cries. Take me, Love, and plunder me; my back is turned; I’ve closed my eyes. I’m tired of walking all alone. This burden grows each passing day. Why do I travel in this direction? Isn’t Eden the other way? But my steps grow weak and weary; loneliness and boredom come free. I’ll be a victim without the sorrow. Take me, Love, and plunder me! |

Love and only love can change all the weariness and make it beautiful. You words touch me today. *s* On the wings of words our spirits fly....and our souls are free. |

Sadly, I've been down this path many times... Well expressed with flair! Sometimes, 'love can hurt so good,' but true love shouldn't cause any pain. I hope you find a real love ![]() Take care, Melissa~ "Poetry is not an opinion expressed... |
