Edit Poem
Editing Instructions
Please note in the NOTES textbox below that this poem has been edited, do
not put your name, please put as the following:
<!--EDITED by moderators
on (Date) for (reasons).-->
DO NOT remove the line break (
<br /> ) html coding at the end of each line break, these are
needed to form the correct lines.
THE CHEATIf you do not wish to
delete a poem, or a certain part of a poem, and instead would like to send the
url to Mick via PM for confirmation, enclose the entire poem (or part/s thereof)
between <!-- and -->
(ie. <!-- POEM TEXT HERE
-->). This will still save the text, but will make it invisible from
viewing (other than page source view). You could also add before the
<!-- something to the effect of "This Poem under review".
DIAGNOSIS: Love
Love is an addiction. It gives us what we crave.
Obscuring fact from fiction; seduction that enslaves!
Our table groans with gifts love owns, in visible profusion;
The banquet ends, yet we pretend -- starved for our illusion.
Friends move on when love has gone;
Its victims court the past.
Sifting though the garbage to keep what cannot last.
Denial to discoverys a long and painful mending.
To lift the slave out of their grave, without a happy ending.
Love is an affliction; which none of us escape.
Having learned that loves return is worth the heart it rapes.
