Scripted Tears

Life's like a poorly penned poem,
punctuated by emotions.
And lacking in substance and weight:
it feels abstract and mystical.

Influencing the heart and soul:
love touts its own philosophy,
And postulates its existence
as extensions of shared feelings.

At times, life can be frustrating,
while sometimes, it's enlightening.
Yet, meaningful interaction
is always its overall theme.

Hope imbues life with rhyme and rhythm,
encouraging feats of magic.
And reveals the reality,
fueled by thoughts of fantasy.

Curiosity motivates,
always leaving you wanting more.
And trust fades to an illusion,
conjured to appease scripted tears.

The Grahamburglar Date: 7/28/2015 4:23:00 PM This write has a lot of very eloquently expressed insights. I particularly like the idea that Hope is the predominant rhythm. I think half the wonder of falling in love is the hope for a fulfilled future with the other person, and good part of the pain, is the loss of that imagined, and hoped for reality. This is a thoughtful and insightful piece, thank you for sharing it Emile. ***7*** Login to Reply Emile Pinet Date: 7/28/2015 4:28:00 PM Thank you, your comments are most welcomed and appreciated, Emile.
