While others force tears out your crying eyes,
and make all your breaths, turn into sighs,
keep your soul ever so vividly lit,
for no one shall dare to try and take it.
If, one day, you lend your heart unto lies,
your soul shall not be your enemy's prize.
Your shattered heart may so weakly submit,
but only to you will your clear soul commit.
Do not fret over their visions so small,
the sight from your soul surpasses them all.
Hold onto it tight and it won't let you down,
to leave you in days where you'll never frown.
But if things get hard, don't worry, let go.
Someone will hold tight, to keep it aglow.
very sentimental, i liked it alot. The rhyme was very smooth and fluid. great piece.
ReplyDeleteVery good. The first stanza was my favorite... The image of forcing tears was particularly good. I'm glad you're going to keep producing.
ReplyDeleteI quite like the light metaphor. Good work
ReplyDeleteGoodish.
ReplyDeleteIt took me a while to see how the light cycled through the poem again, but once it was there I got it.
