shoulder. Innocently arousing
emotions inside of them.

The sparks that once
ignited their souls in days of old,
once again flicker within them.

What began innocently
has boiled and run over,
out of control.

Swirling passions and lieing eyes
peering at strangers
in their homes.

Wretched deceit,
spun carefully around them,
entangles their thoughts.

Consuming them?
Feelings of unrequited love, and deadly snares
that entrap their minds.

Coaxed by fear, they are lead
to barren wastelands
of regret and sorrow.

Love forlorn seeks
the devils company and begets
transgression that can never be undone;

But love cherished blossoms
into fields of hope which shroud
all blemishes and beautify the soul.

The path is set before them,
and all is still, as the stage darkens
for the final curtain.

What made you decide to switch from prose poem to tercets? Any outside influences? I think you might want to change lieing to lying.

While every care is taken to ensure the general sites content is family safe, our moderators cannot be in all places; all the time.

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. ©
