Poetry is nothing to the hearts of men.
Not but words on paper with a twist,
And a sing-song-y tone.
Listless ears and simple minds,
Cannot digest a heart filled verse,
Or understand what is real,
Beyond the boundaries of touch.
What drives one man to scribe,
His deepest darkest thoughts or dreams,
Is vapid humor to the modern man.
The same goes with love.
Love is nothing to the eyes of wisdom.
If one gives up their all,
In hopes they might be received,
Fear might they the lasting pain of rejection receive.
The ache of such a wound is grave and fiery,
Not angel nor demon could stand it let alone man.
A savage shredding thorn thrust deep into the heart,
Yet the heart beats on.
Time and time again the beating pulls the thorn,
Reopening the wound and letting the pride ooze out.
The pain in the end might only be settled with replacement,
An alternative to fill the hole left by rejection.
Such thought is inspiration to try again.
The same goes with poetry…

Very good! It's upsetting to know how often things like poetry and love are disregarded, but this was lovely! Reminds me of myself, so I can definitely appreciate that! :) Keep it up! |

Ow, but sometimes if you follow the wrong path you won't meet your true destiny and without those experiences would not understand the value of what you have or will find. |

i wrote this after being told the age old line, "I think we should just be friends." |
