Not True

My soul is walking through a meadow, where the grass is like blades of steel. They cut deep and leave my wounds to bleed, these are wounds that may never heal. there are winds whispering around me, saying softly do without despair, as flowers of hate drown out the whispers, with evil shouts of we never have cared. when you cannot look into the luminous moons, or speak true words of love, then it is of love you will never speak, for your words are to the arrow stricken heart of a dove. suddenly everything's gone with no wind. flowers of hate have gone too, My body knows not of what sound it should make, for when you say you will listen your words are not true.

Jeanette, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@
