His to keep

"His to keep."

Ever wonder if life is just a series of randomness. Or is filled with preordained mile marks of destiny. Does selflessness worth more than pleasures of selfishness? At the end of life is there judgement of one's deeds their pitiless virulence vers

STRING IN THE WIND

STRING IN THE WIND

I wrote this poem after my former husband cheated and then abandoned me

It is sad

It is sad

AdamsAnt ended up with this being my comments relating to his poem. It specifically relates to the wastefulness of suicide when there is so much out there to look forward to experiencing. 30 years ago when my wonderful marriage was escaping me. 20 years ago when my children wanted nothing to do with me. 10 years ago when my children started back. 0 years ago when my grandchildren mean so much to all of us. 10 years to come and I so wish I will be there to share that day. Looks like another poem.

The Seeker

The Seeker

Animosity after an amour

"Animosity after an amour."

There were no traces of my intemperance. Amiable Aries with a playful innocence. Sacrificed myself to your pleasures. Such a guilty sport, your dark desires. A little lamb fell victim to your sacrilegious practice. There can be no state o

GASP

GASP I'm drowning and dry land is out of reach. The ugly truth is the pains so deep. Hypothesis is a scrutiny, Tortured by poisons that run through my veins. Captured by demons who play wicked mind games. Solace doesn't come cheap

Tick, tock, tick, tock time slips by as you sleep and when you awake love has gone the sparkle in eyes slowly faded away and hair turned grey where have the years gone where is our youth our dreams our desires turned to dust blown away i

Inner Fear

Inner Fear

I wrote this about the people I see struggling with their inner demons if they will. It made me see that each of us have a dark side that could consume us if we dont not have a good foundation. If we cant push those negatives away they will eventually destroy who we are and in a sense kill the person we were.
