All that's fit to print

Chaos lies in letters before me

Lives entwined in subtle ways

Bloodshot eyes the words abhor me

While away my precious days

 

Loves long lost and loves to gain

Reality cost so much these days

Connect with those so far away

Then there's not much more to say

 

Sitting here devoid of it

Caustic words and humble wit

Think I'll take my leave of it

That's all that's fit to print

Reality in age and wisdom vs the dreams of youth and idealism... I guess!

[selkietales]

I really like this, but when you say, "Reality cost so much these days," do you mean costs?

A story in deed, indeed, such a cleverness of thought about reality and how it's interpreted .. that last stanza ties things up very clearly.

[P.S.Chance]

I like this. very precise yet mystery as well.

[Rusty]

Thank you

[Distant horizons]

Wonderfully done. and for such a subtle ending, it speaks so loudly. Great piece.

[Kaya]

This is so eloquent... It says so much in every line, its amazing what you do with just four or five words. Incredible!

[Liderien]

You still amaze me...
