Email Poem | Today's Poetry

 Palm of your hand
some say
a river divides the cities
but I believe the people do
we stare at decadence
and lie...
pretending the concrete alleyways
are as beautiful as
the paths
of
grass
or roses
that once grew there
And of your heart
is it the same?
Have you traded beauty and compassion
for a quicker way to satisfy yourself?
yes the road is faster
easier
but we shall see what that gets you
like swallowing poison
you betray yourself
the masses join in
Or did you join them?
my words do not judge but are observations
I too have fallen but
I tried to stop you
anyone that would listen
please hold to love like a child
dream sweet dreams all your life
never give up
you can change things
just take your time
