Last Chance

 

Led on...

...Let down

Left to cry

On the last little star.

Lost as she,

In the mourning light.

Losing my face...

...Lit by shame

Forced to live my lies.

 

Lacking strength,

Or lapse in judgment,

Looking for some leeway.

I plead for leniency!

Allow me a love

Worth living for.

Leave theses tears

And unlock my heart

One last time...

Author's Note

Today's poem was brought to you by the letter L. I now I used the sad mourning in place of dawn morning I kinda think I like the little effect it has.

the lines move into each other in an actual feel of mourning..being let down
by your own judgment and someone unworthy. It is easy to feel the pain, but
fortunately there is hope for the future. very fine.

Well said but I would say let me share with them that life is worth living. Unless you know a love of self you can't share it with anyone. I also like the effect of this piece.

Yes, surprisingly the heavy alliteration does actually work. Well done! NH

I really enjoyed reading this. It flows wonderfully and doesn't beat around the bush, per say. The first six lines are my favorite. I can see a star fading in the distance.
