The Smile Was Paid For

Contributed by reprobate on Saturday, 25th August 2007 @ 02:51:50 AM in AEST
Topic: LostLove

Betrayal's woe elicits an exhasperated sigh
The many questions raised receive mute reply
Sinking trust arrives with such a terrible cost
A broken anchor would describe what was lost

Wondering what it was that earned this fate
It's really not something you ever anticipate
As a child of life, you are so acutely aware
When faith is lost, time doesn't wait nor care

Beset with future's uncertainty, alone yet again
Forced to recall the past by the ignorance of men
Just the same old story but on a different page
A broken heart; too many tears; impotent rage

Where shall you turn when the turmoils done
Perhaps your back to then, your face to the sun
Emotions are an outpouring of the mind's construct
And this pain is only one side of that end product

Time's march will dry your pillow and heal your soul
Know always that life is yours and you have control
So, please don't stand there wondering what to do
Hope, happiness and trust are completely up to you

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
