  Rain On Your Parade

Heaven can wait, ‘cause there’s hell to pay,
I’m stickng around to see the day,
You best not think that you can get away,
You’ll rot to the bone like tooth decay.

Play the role of friend, but you’re so cruel,
Stirring up trouble, then acting cool,
In the end, you’ll be the biggest fool,
You’ll get a lesson, not learned in school.

A sweet caring façade, to gain trust,
Soaking up attention is a must.
People think you’re so righteous ‘n just,
Lurk in shadows, ‘n daggers you thrust.

Use who you wish for personal gain,
Keeping yourself on top, you’re so vain,
Twisted schemes causing heartbreak ‘n pain.
Your parade’s over, ousted by rain.

Cynthia, this is an extremely well penned, powerful write, illustrating the often and well-deserved pitfalls that shall prevail in the end on one’s parade who lives within the precarious darkness of deceit. Your tremendous poetic talent soars with this magnificent composition, my love. I especially loved the closing! Thanks for sharing it.

I love you,
Tom

I sincerely hope so Cynthia. This is a hard hitting exposure of evil and just so everyone on this board will know, I have not turned anyone's poetry into mangagment, this is one thing they can't lay at my door unles they want to try it falsely.
