Let the Truth Remain Unspoken

another short poem, dont usually write 'em short so enjoy this one, haha

Let the truth remain unspoken,

So dreams may still be dreamt.

Let the heart remain unbroken,

So first loves may be kept.

Let the stars remain above us.

So we may always strive.

And let death remain among us,

So we may know our lives.

Let all these things be done in turn,

And they, in turn, will do;

Everything that need be done,

To give, your life, to you.

Had to laugh at the contradictions in your word comparison. LOL Too funny. First, great to see you posting again, my friend. Second, exciting seeing you post again, my friend. Third, this is one Outstanding work of art, as usual and as to be expected of you. Your pen never fails you. You have the precision of a Mastery. Never stop. As far as reviewers, lately we seem to have the FB 2.0 bug going around since the makeover. A lot of fly by reads these days. LOL
This is a Remarkable piece. You are what I call a natural poet who knows exactly what he is after in each piece, and builds with a Mason's accuracy.

I really like the firsts= stanza because it seems to explain how even though it's right or "moral" to be honest, sometimes it's just best to keep your mouth shut. Because folks can't deal with the truth most of the time.

intersting so few words yet emotion can be felt and my fav lines wear the first and secound lines

In many ways, my young friend, you surpass those of us who've been writing longer than you've been drawing breath. Your talent is astounding, as is your insight. I loved this piece. There are two great old songs that came to mind as I read your words tonight. "Silence is Golden" by Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons, and John Lennon's Masterpiece..."Imagine", despite the obvious differences in message. It just seems to be the type of poem people will be quoting thirty years from now. Well done, as always!
