Purity

Young love so freely given

Call it passion

Call it sin

 

Broken

Alone

Impure from within

 

Showerd twice

Try to look nice

Unable to clean my soul

 

Contentment is found

You showed me how

Forgiveness

I now embrace

 

You look through my eyes

Past the shadow of me

You see

Purity

 

Author's Note

A poet writes a part of their soul. The readers are the ones that finish the work to make it whole.

Purity---- Past your shadow and
in your eyes. I will buy into that.
Purity is not in us, but in another,
for we always look for purity.
We do not see purity in ourselves
because we rarely look within, rather
we look to others and their it is
in your eyes.
Nice poem and super nice philosophy.

Purity.......... this is lovley every young girl should read this. Fourth and fifth stanza are lovely we should nt be so harsh on ourselves.

I like the way you used the word purity. Create a story with a real ending. I like the flow of desire and emotion and the positive ending. Thank you for sharing the outstanding poem.
