More Snippets

I. Bleeding -- a world without comfort -- lost without love -- no destination... silently walk without touching wounds... where is love? II. Frail fingers grope... sodden afternoons... winter fog... through gray eternity -- cold eyes, delicious mouth. Found love will laugh, desire returning. III. Making love, we deceived ourselves. Complicitors, we lied. Compliant pawns, we defied danger, practiced brilliant fabrication -- but truth was stranger. IV. Others know desire: ever changing years -- and lifetimes -- reaching towards the moon. Love, be my way.

    This poem seems to delve deeply into the Psyche and displays how our human frailties keep leading us in and out of a reality we don't desire to face. Yet love truly is the answer, whether sharing, giving or taking it. Sublime poem! Mahalo, Connie

    I suspect something sad happened to take you away from these pages for such a long time. This poem seems to indicate that. Hope you are back with happier lines. Thank you for reading and commenting on mine. Love, Joyce
