    SONG OF SORROW


    It's horrible, dear Lord, with the need to horde.
    With the need to love, without help from above.
    So many things to say, without the ability to pray.
    With the need to pay, with no blessings today.
    So much sorrow.
    Nothing to borrow.
    Seething with pain.
    Without the ability to reign.
    The sun shines on the good, but they just stood.
    You're blessings are gone.
    Now this is my song.

    i loved this poem. maybe im a sucker for a tragedy

    Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
