PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

find I not the explicitness of the maddest moment

to carry me beyond all hope's initial reclusive scare

and into a dreadfully darkened chamber of awareness

found by no other but I

with the gentle aid of desperation's sweet sense

for otherwise yet promised despair

open not the wound that will only continue to bleed

but the goodness and gate to my unintended affair

and for the very pleasure

my pride will forgo to plead

and list not the shortened length of reasons

that I've come upon to care

for those are merely 'Wings Of The Much Too Obvious'

remnants one might say of a once most unprofitable pair

infatuation and blindness............
