You wouldn't sacrifice love for your own selfishness,
would you?
You wouldn't let down your biggest fan,
would you?

Premium Member On a Summer's Day

The water shimmered on the bay.
The sailboats all went out to play.
Mary let down her hair 
by the water there -
all on a summer's day.

Life’s gift he received,
 
A toy to play thought to be-
 

Heavens were let down!

Let Down

Why do I move so swiftly
from here to there?
My mind runs amok.
I see what is not true.
A message invisible.
Read by my desire
to be in demand.

Let Down

Why do I move so swiftly
from here to there.
My mind runs amok.
I see what is not true
a message, invisible,
read by my desire
to be in demand.


Broken

Lost 
Gone
Deserted
Fallen
Can't get up
Struck
Let down 
Can't move on
Despaired
Look deeply into her soul
You see it clear
This girl
This woman
Is broken

We Share the Same Starry Night

the oracles of light a symphony in sight transform herself into the Aurora Borealis let down her maple hair we share the same starry night

Rapunzel Let Down Your Hair

A fearless knight in shining armor
On his way back from battle
Outside a maiden's tower
Climbing her long golden hair
Because she is a prisoner in her own castle

Premium Member Let Down

Sharp pain in my side! Big reaction!
For a stabber I'll show no compassion!
I search 'neath my clothes;
Oops! No crime, I suppose
When Sir Underwire is the assassin !

Premium Member Nice Hair

No clothes
      to wear

   No time 
      to spare

   So say
      a prayer

   Let down 
      your hair

   Why can't 
      I stare?
 
   You are
      all bare

Caught In the Dream

a perfect dream,
wonderous seam
like a fairytale song
i am caught in the dream

don't wake me up
for i will be let down
a wistful dream
a happy sorrow

Premium Member Sounds of Solace

These days silence rules the darkening hours
It echoes through halls of solemn air
As she awaits illumined moments
When she’ll let down her guard
And issues in solace sounds of dawn

Uwa

She let down her guard
But he was a fraud
he wanted one thing
she wasn't going to give it to him
so he beat her and took it
then cast her away
now she crys on the curb 
waiting for a new day

Premium Member Unloved

I don't feel love 
or maybe 
I don't want to feel it 
I've become too attached 
to so many people 
then in a flash 
a turn of events 
I am let down 
thrown to the curb 
unwanted 
unloved 
once again

I'Ll Know To Read This Poem

Didn’t think I’d be here 
writing all this down
guess I want to remember 
how it feels to be let down 
so next time when I see
this all repeating again 
I’ll know to read this poem 
to bring back all my pain

To This Windily Increase

To this windily increase
One, more chilling reacts:
"Sighs of men accumulated!
And articulated!

On Love's new track, setting out
With skied hopes dawning
Then let down of, all too soon;
Like sunset at noon.

Undetectable Lights

I've been homeless and I've owned homes
Each time in love with the girl of my dreams
I've walked down some lonely streets alone
Been let down by love twice over it seems
Life's mysterious riddles of reds and greens

Ms Jack and Tack

There was once a lady called Ms Jack
Who lived near a grass region called Tack.
When prickled by the grasses
On her way with her glasses.
She let down her glasses and her Jack.

Premium Member The Sun Beats Down

The sun beats down on my garden's back --
Looking up, I squeeze my eyes tightly
Seeking a cloud that will let down
Her skirts...
I mumble a prayer for moisture
As once-staunch squirrels slump
Their faces drawn, like withered leaves

Susan Lawrence

The artist Susan Lawrence 
Can quickly let down her hair
And peel off all of her clothes
To dance in the open air

Her lust for life is endless
But always pauses to paint
Leaving us all VERY grateful
The artist was not born a Saint!

Get-Down Let-Down

GET-DOWN LET-DOWN

He took rhino muzzle excrescence
For boost of his hoped for tumescence
But in spite of big dose
From a pachyderm‘s nose
It was useless with no acquiescence
