I went to the Garden of Love,
And saw what I never had seen:
A Chapel was build in the midst,
Where i used to play on the green.

And the gates of this Chapel were shut,
And Thou shalt not. writ over the door.
So i turn'd to the Garden of Love,
That so many sweet flowers bore,

And i saw it was filled with graves,
And tomb-stones where flowers should be:
And Priests in black gowns, were walking their rounds,
And binding with briars, my joys & desires.

Beautifully sad poem ChainedAngel...I know this feeling all too well...but don't worry...with time your joys and desires will be bound no longer. Just make sure you're ready.

Yours truly,
Angel

humming madly
filling my head
with blood
and sorrow
and dread
the executioner's song."

I know how this feels....sometimes i wonder if happiness is always going to be kept from me, but we gotta have faith that our time will come! **HUG**

take care,

such a beautiful picture that you paint yet so sad! happiness does seem so beautiful and love so bright and then you see the tombs and the reality sets in...though someday you'll find love...be patient (i'm still waiting too but it'll come!) good luck!

great poem, my friend!!!
