It doesn't matter anymore

Sun that raises at dawn sets with twilight

Rain that washes my face soon dries in the breeze of time

Looking close, what once was thought gold now mirages of pyrite

Passionate love's slippery sweat wiped on a rag of rhyme

Age's shadow sweeps softly over youth's brow

Past evaporates as cleansing water on one's eyes

Eternity collapses in a broken mirror of here and now

Where lies mutilated truth, in a pile of lies

Years through a torn sieve pour

Day melts to night, night condenses into day

A frown, just a wilted smile I once wore

Black of night, light of day all turn to gray

Was, is and will be, heaven knows no more

Difference between wrong and right, even God does ignore

God must ignore it. Trump could not have been elected otherwise.

Soren,
I think about this a lot... it's really all about the nature of time. What we experience is linear time on a track from all the way back there to infinity out front, but because time does not accelerate, we can never really know where we are on that line, and without taking a step, we are plowing along with "now" at our nose and "then" on our a*s. But There is mounting evidence that time is not linear, says so in the Bible and in the quantum physics labs as well. And remember "was, is, and "Will be" are all passive verbs...

Thank you so much Vol for the read and most informative interpretation it is always appreciated.

Hi Soren.

You might be thinking you are ignored and its mistake of me losing but i would say you just got rid of your sin. Always one who loves you makes sure you are sin free i mean suffering free. But you are tossing other way around. And poor cindrella with one shoe was ready to go with without another then and now too because she knows that lover can ditch but not husband because he commits before God thats where God ignored your sin.

To me i am dead alive with my husband dead alive tooo. You cant understand that intricacies because i dont think you hav not heart that can be emotional.

Anyway good luck to you.

Jessy Jacob.

A message recognized from the depths of a universe of union that will never be broken. A voice known and familiar that talks out of darkness. A spark of hope still aglow that echoes in an ear searching for music. Let me assure you that love never dies and even one without a heart can feel and even a body without a soul knows the power of love. May God and all nature bless you and only hope that you are well. Thanks so much for the read and comment it is appreciated

oh wow this poem is fantastic. you encapsulate such a hopeless, but often deceitful feeling. you perfectly curate the image of how time just blurs, "Day melts to night, night condenses into day", that line is what brings me to that conclusion - at least that is my take away!

fantastic poem, once again, Soren!

Dear Soren...I can relate to this poem at certain times of my life....this is very sorrowful, depressing, like you don't care about things, about life, it's not worth it...not pleasant...it's all very dark and dull...your words are telling and vivid and beautiful in a very honest and personal way..." A frown, just a wilted smile I once wore"....thank you for sharing Soren
Warmly, B

i just finished reading this for the 5th time now and i want to talk about almost every line, but excuse my illness sir i'm having a bit of a hard time writing. But I want to come back to that and talk about it again, and now I'll say something more superficial.

I was definitely impressed and it gave me a depressed and hopeless atmosphere in the dim light. The message it conveys is really powerful. Everything is changing, everything is stuck in a loop and it's like nothing makes sense anymore. wow. strong. The last sentences are such a deep and big acceptance... It really says so much with so few words. I loved it. in favs

[Soren]

I thank you so much for the read and kind words of support. Your review means a great deal and is most appreciated.
