Wise Investment

Getting out of a bad marriage is like breaking ties with a bank.

I banked
On your love
Invested my whole life
But the returns
Ruined me.
No, you do not own me!
So I decided
To take back
My deposits
Withdraw Interest
And regain
Stability,
Net Profit?
Surely
Me.

Short and to the point. An interesting use of words.

Thank you Sean.

You are so amazing in your unique poetic perspective
and depiction.
You depict your concepts so wonderfully.
I can feel that you too, like me, write straight from the heart and soul

I read a lot of poems on Writers Cafe
and today I TRUTHFULLY call you my second favourite poet
on Writers Cafe. You and someone else are my TOP 2
I GLADLY PUT YOU TODAY
ON MY TOP 2

Believe me, it takes a deep poet to touch me.
But I respect all poets.
It's just that some poets touch me more than others

I love your style. Your poetic eye is sharp.

I love the way you made love synonymous with a Bank investment.

Your poems are laced with a deeper truth.
as a result I can tell that, like me, you are driven by love and truth.
This shows in your poems.

Thank you kedar. Some of us write with passion because of what we have gone through and that is where the emotion comes from.
