Last Leap

Built by need Desires kept deep I gave my soul In my last leap Just a hollow tunnel Thoughts went to sleep Blocking any heartache In my last leap Emptiness consumes me Memories no longer I keep Rejected beyond words In my last leap Slain by stupidity By a mountain so steep I will die in the desert In my last leap Cast me into eternity I have sewn all I can reap Happiness once more rejects me In my last leap

Teresa - This poem flowed and rhymed well I loved the way each stanza ended with common lines - I want you to know that after our greatest tribulations will come our greatest triumphs - Stay strong and better days will follow - Blessings always

Dear Teresa, whatever you are going through, hang in there for it shall soon pass. There is a brighter tomorrow, please believe. We are all feeling you, as so many of us have been there. With love, Shar

I am in the habbit of always writing about god.When I got saved all want to do is pray to god with letters of poems or just words.After that I got a pet and that completed it,I got it as a baby so it could grow with me.
