PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

sincerity

be not so terribly weary

as you quite certainly know

this so wanting soul

why your heart is so full

that its almost scary

its flutter

one once so cleverly stole

and it was lost to you

until now

here in this hope filled role

you trudged on

somehow

a shadowy survivor

of many a countless lonely page

with such sad muse to extol

for love once so long ago

routed beyond any passing of age

but alas

its slowly started to take its

telling toll

the careful collection of care

laying gently within the words

means more than you yet

even realize

but just like the soul

never forget

as complacency tends to much too

cruelly

the vast majority of one's good sense

but spiritual awareness eventually

again

fans out her repeatedly thwarted faint

wings of hope

and unbelieving enough

more than ten million shed tears later

one recognizes at last

he daring beloved plume

ah

but isn't love indeed quite grande

so please

I beg of you

never spare me of this

no

better yet

it of you I demand..................
