    Wretched--A true Story

    The unloved boy

    Tantrums, crying, misfit
     Pain, sorrow, and despair

    A few years later
    Anger, hatred, and drugs
    Not to mention the thugs

    As he`s crying out
    he joins the wrong crowd

    He then meets mr.manely
    Part of the manson family

    He has`nt a dime but
    sure knows crime as
    He enters his prime

    Pain, sorrow, and despair
    Is surely inthe air!

    A few years later
    The unloved boy is
    Now a unloved man

    A few years later
    The unloved man meets
    A man of God! a man of love

    Love beckons wretched to come
    Come he does, and love begets love

    Pain, sorrow, and despair
    Becomes faith, love and hope

    Pain leaves no stain
    Sorrow is not for tomorrow
    And despair is not in the air

    Finally the name wretched is returned
    And redeemed to... Richard

    Very storylike. I lked to metamophosis from what was to what is now, and the hopes of what is to come. I found it somewhat inspirational. Write on.

    I see we do have the same style of writing. A very nice way to introduce the reader to your past and now your promising future. I like what I read and will read some more.

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.
