Forever be damned.

Whos truth is the scabbard;

Dear Soft

Not an easy one to get. Non the less worth reading a few time. It/'/s good to have determination as long as that determination results in purpose. Believe in your self always. Shade your pages as you wish for beauty is in the eye of the beholder or one man/'/s meat is another man/'/s poison. Just because that is true dose not mean one has failed all it means is the wrong audience was reached.

So no failed to admit. Just just brilliance in your own right.

Great write

Greetings
Rus

This came across very cleanly. Very easy to read and grasp. The concept is very alluring as well. Very Much enjoyed this work. Never stop molding that which is you.

Crayons, music, scissors, pen; all the tools a writer needs and you use them in a visually honest way.
This poem should be marketed if it hasn/'/t been.

While every care is taken to ensure the general sites content is family safe, our moderators cannot be in all places; all the time. Please report poetry and or comments that are in breach of our site rules HERE (Please include poem title or url). Parents also please ensure that you supervise your children well when they are on the internet; regardless of what a site says about being, or being considered, child-safe.

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. Â©
