Scripted Tears

Life's like a poorly penned poem, punctuated by emotions. And lacking in substance and weight, dreams are abstract and mystical. Influencing both heart and soul, love touts its own philosophy. Postulating its existence as the pinnacle of feelings. Sometimes life's scary or painful, while at others, it's filled with joy. But, there are similarities found within its overall theme. Hope's the predominant rhythm, encouraging feats of magic. And escaping reality, oft hides in thoughts of fantasy. Curiosity turns life's page, always leaving you wanting more. And life becomes an illusion, conjured to appease scripted tears. (Blank Verse) 7/27/2015

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***

There's no chance of a poorly penned poem coming from you,,Emile, that's for sure. This is a fine piece, deep and thoughtful- 'love touts its own philosophy, and acknowledges its existence as extensions of shared feelings'- genius write. Simply excellent, Emile. a #7 and I'll gratefully fave it. Regards, Viv
