 Don't Toy with Emotions

To toy with emotions is not a game,
To give of yourself then take it away,
Willingly a lover gives you their heart,
Don't take it now and tear it apart !

Play the games if you dare and choose,
Don't be surprised in the end you loose,
A chance for a thrill of what might be,
Trust and know that you will never see.

Sacred the heart you were given to keep,
Don't look around or another you seek,
Cherish the one that was given to you,
Concede if you will it is pure and true .

Remember always not to hurt and deny,
Acting blasé you could destroy and belie,
Treasures given, that you were keeper of,
You no longer entitled to share thereof !

Do you wish this fate to befall your path,
Keep the charade and you'll feel the wrath,
No longer will you hear the love and care,
You will feel all alone in dark and despair.

Tempting the fate at this point and time,
Is a sad understatement and so out of line,
Remember always the love you can count on,
Is honest, sincere, white and pure as swan.

Elga, it’s virtually impossible to add anything more endearing than what has already been said, but hopefully you know me by now, and I’ll give it my best shot ...lol. Besides, it’s not copied or pasted either …lol. I have found that by dropping by your stunning DEN, has made facing the many obstacles, which have unfortunately crop up lately, that much easier to overcome. You have exceptionally rare talent and your breathtaking poetry and presentations, are second to none! Your incomparable quill and precious soul is as soothing as the gentle swan and delightful poetry, and yes even sometimes sensual, that you grace the poetic pages of your DEN. This piece is a shining example of what I am talking about. The whole piece speaks to everyone who reads it. You are right, the heart is something that should never be taken for granted nor should the person it is attached too. I surely hope you’ll stick around, my precious friend. Take care and be well.

I can add little to what has been so beautifully expressed - either above or below my little box here, Elga. You truly are a "poet of the heart" of the highest order, whose honesty and purity of thought and soul always shine through your polished writing. My only other response would be to say too, how sad when a relationship is such that one partner is almost required to close their emotions down so as to not offend the other - and then that may possibly lead to the need for other "toyings" - but perhaps that is a different issue and the other side of the coin of a heart that indeed desires to give and receive "a whole lotta love". Eloquent grace and poise as usual, Elga - just like your spotless swan. TY Kate xx

If I were fortunate enough to catch a lady's heart, I would never do anything to hurt it. However, there are some people out there who take the giving of a heart as a license to play with other hearts.

How often these very feelings you so marvelously describe here have
crossed my mind. You have taken a timeless topic and turned it into
a thing of beauty, albeit with a tinge of sadness.
Yes...a heart is the most precious thing we own. But you are right,
so right, it is not a toy!

This rings so true and leaves me feeling
melancholy hoping I never hurt anyone, yet
knowing that sometimes love does hurt and
I have been hurt too. Excellent piece provokes
much thought.

Tis so true Elga. Sometimes we all take for granted those that we are given and fail to realize how much love we are truly blessed with. A somber write that was in need of telling.
