Guilty

old pages...

 

Follow me down with ongoing intent

Savor my resistance, for it's become decadent

I have found that my nature is despicable

And lately I've been meditating the unthinkable

 

I want life simple, I want life hard

I love to mingle, I love to be apart

Can I make it better or  I'm destined to eradicate

The only peace of mind I was ever able to create?

 

Or maybe its best if you stay away from me

And the best chance for your happiness is now to flee...

Didn't mean to bring you to your knees

Turns out i'm the  too cruel villain of this piece.

The poem is amazing.
"I want life simple, I want life hard
I love to mingle, I love to be apart"
The need and wants if a life can leave us in bad places. I believe better to flex and bend than demand things that cannot be. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.

Thank you very much, that is very true. It probably takes a lot of wisdom to do it though...

Old age make us learn. Every deed or action done will effect us. Better to be the soft voice with a open door.. You are welcome Ana.

we are opposites within one body, one mind...
opposite ends of a spectrum of personality...and we can all be villains...and we can all be heroes...might depend on the day, the mood, the write...

true......like everything else in this life.... good vs evil is relative....but i also think that sometimes cruelty is innevitable in order to avoid causing greater pain....is it mercy in this case?

[Lyn Anderson]

This has a wonderfully sinister undertone to it. Yet, somehow, I empathize. We all do things sometimes we wonder how we could. Thought provoking.

[Ana B.]

true. I guess we never understand the lenghts of our cruelty....not unless we're put against the fact...
thanks for the review :)

This was very good, a little dark but in a good way. I really enjoyed this one today.

[Ana B.]

Thank you for stopping by Will :) darkness is the price for light...i guess...

Genial and enthralling.

almost wish I could resist....but I'm drawn back
never able to keep track
of time.
Cause all that is perfect - its simple.
Coffe with dark chocolate and the sweetest dimple....
Hugs and laughing
Seems far away ...but i'll keep on tracking.
