While We Were Idle
My love has been dilluded by so many constant falls
My heart has been polluted by running into walls.
My escape is plaqued by virtue, echoing truth's calls.
My mind has just concluded I should stay
Right where I am.
My perspective's been abused by assumptive perception
My conscience is confused by poisonous deception
And everything I've thought's become a misconception
Maybe I should find some better friends.
The world, in all it's worth, is drowned with silent hating
And patiently the "men" sit by quietly debating.
I too sit by, immobilized and contemplating.
Nevermind. Goodbye.
I admire your propensity for writing very much. I have only read a few of your poems, and I thought I might put my oar in on this one. On the last posted paragraph of this poem, you have disrupted your own poetic rhythm. If that is the style you are seeking, run with it. Otherwise, I would suggest editing the last paragraph to match the rhythm of the first two. I look forward to your completed work.
