A false image
She grasped for the fire. Yearned for its warmth.
Glare upon her cheeks, she smiled with eyes alight.
Smoldered love she held tight, upon the hills of klotho
For love is what she seek'd and thought she brought.
But blind it is, so what she felt she could not sight.
Bare his hands absorbed hers in the morning light.
And the winds blew wildly in the summer sun.
And her tears were quick to join.
For a picture speaks a thousand words.
And a cliff adorns the sea as it beats upon the shore.
My friends I say, love is a beauty ugly when gone.
Glare upon her cheeks, she smiled with eyes alight.
Smoldered love she held tight, upon the hills of klotho
For love is what she seek'd and thought she brought.
But blind it is, so what she felt she could not sight.
Bare his hands absorbed hers in the morning light.
And the winds blew wildly in the summer sun.
And her tears were quick to join.
For a picture speaks a thousand words.
And a cliff adorns the sea as it beats upon the shore.
My friends I say, love is a beauty ugly when gone.

I loved the imaegry,seldom can I find work that I deem worthy of commenting on, it's nice to see a young mind not wasted, especially since as black men we seldom have time to even ponder these things. Ssbbath

Seems we would be pigeon holed huh,?! Me personally I love guns,even though I know that,that was a rhetorical question, They are the reason that I am the person I am today, a paraplegic double amputee. I still have a crazy great life but....................Anyway I'll be reading your work, perhaps one you'll read mine.

Vor, I have read both your writings today... n i find you a very sensitive writer... the way you choose to express your thoughts, the imagery you use is beautiful...
there is just one more thing that i want to add because i glanced through the comments you have received n made here... I can only say that a person can never conform to the popular perception of race creed or class because its our soul that defines us and our mind that distinguishes us... so forget the label the world would like to put... find yourself :)
