With in the verses written,
secrets and sorrow lie.
Words to express the heartache...
the devastation when love dies.

With in the verses written,
pain is all dressed up in rhyme.
Promises made, now broken,
commitments lost to the passage of time.

With in the verses written,
confessions defend then define...
Detailing all the damage,
read between the lines.

With in the verses written,
hear whispered silent screams.
Destiny denied by fate,
cancellation of all my dreams.

With in the verses written,
desire and desperation dance.
This poet begs for inspiration...
forgiveness and love beg for a second chance.

 ...every moment of every day...
your still with me in every way.
every poem and song...
every rhyme and verse...
your still here...like a beautiful curse.

oh! I love this..... within the lines if someone takes the time to read; are the true meanings and feelings of the writer.
This jumped out and grabbed me with the way in which you have written it.

Janet Marie, it seems to me you don't have to "beg for inspiration", you have it all the time ! " Read Between The Lines." Great poem, liked it a lot

Forgiveness is up to the poet - Love maybe up to Fate, me thinks.  This is a beautiful poem, Janet with much feeling and much truth behind it.  Wonderful work.

I never know what emotion you will evoke next when I open your poems janetmarie.  Only thing I know is that I will be touched in some part.  Keep it comin'!  PLEASE!  You are an inspiration to all.

  Don't care what people say
Just follow your own way
Don't give up and use the chance
To return to innocence.

Cool. Very, very cool poem.

With in the verses written,
confessions defend then define...
Detailing all the damage,
read between the lines.

With in the verses written,
hear whispered silent screams.
Destiny denied by fate,
cancellation of all my dreams.

I am intrigued more and more...

Very good poem and so true, you  capture the purpose some have  for writing anything to begin with, and you hide it so carefully in the poem the title seems to evoke a set for the poem because  even in this poem where it is supposedly layed bear, you have to read between the lines !!
