For Me Or Against Me?

For me or against me? Do stay out in your uncertain nest, Go to your heart desire, Follow your real heart If i am not enough for you. Really,it's sometimes difficult When my pockets seemed dried And empty, I failed in action when such happens, At harmattan things seemed even worst, For the pockets get even drier and smaller. I know i will smile one day. No longer then twist me and tell Me lies... Or flying around me like flies. Be for me or against me For good. I know the symbols Of your deceptions, Writing all over your smile And speech like the words of Jezebel. The movements of your waist Like wind from nowhere to anywhere Are all relics of your coming and going. Then be for me or against me, For my heart is tired,weak and feeble As i wait to see if the next will Step in and stay for good.

Very good, Charles! It's not a limerick though. There is some rhyme here. If you make the rhyme more consistent and reduce it to 12 lines or less, you would have a great entry for the election humor contest. Thanks for reading my work. Check the forms of poetry link in the blue banner near the top of this page and you'll see the limerick form. Best to you, Diane

Hi Charles. I see you have given a choice -for me or against me, sometimes in love it comes to the point of either stay or leave. Enjoyed this write Charles. God Bless Phyl
