Carried Away
A very kind young man
got carried away by loved
and hated feelings;
at first,he saw the friends and people
in his world so loving and cheerful...
then, the deep pain
of having been
unrightly loved...aleniated him from them!
The fear of finding worse,not better,
made him realize their unfaithfulness...
and waking up from that nightmare,
he was struck by anger with a vengeance!
A very kind,young man
got carried away by loved
and hated feelings;
now,alone,he restlessly searches
for his boyhood' joy so far gone...
a joy that he unwillingly missed!
And as the wrinkles change
his once- smooth and shiny face,
he refuses to recall a past
that only reflects sadness!
