Four lines about rejection

Rejection, one of the seven capital sins, got when searching for love, or tenderness, or comfort, or sanctuary...
Those that had been rejected once, know how the fires of hell burn, those that had been just rejected again and again are the ghosts of ourselves...


Poem Artwork








Opening a window, discovering the butterflies gone.
A postman supposed to come twice that never came.
One good and young heart bathed with bitterness
in the hands of a cheater playing old love’s games.

...there's that butterfly thief again! I've been dwelling a lot on this term lately... perhaps not just the butterflies are missing, but maggots have somehow replaced them. And they're eating away at your soul... good metaphors as always, Georg. --Charlie

Rejection, a súbject worth writing about but rarely covered because authors shý away from it like a taboo.

Georg, I know well this subject of rejection! But you know what, if they just aren't into to you, they just aren't into you...Hard pill to swallow but sometimes that is what life hands you..

Much peace, love, and light,
Amber

Dear Georg, My friend is ninty year old and in good health. Until now he had no problem. But when he reach this age, he told me about his bitterness about being alone. What should I tell him? Love Emile

WOW! Great wisdom in those lines dear Georg. Remember, if they don't want you, you don't need them.

And it seems those most capable of deep love are the ones who are usually rejected. You say so much in so few words.

Rejection - even the word itself, sounds sad. And for me, your first line is terribly sad.

I can't possibly even under the remotest... feel of a better answer than Patricks, and Carrols, for ones you get near to him, rejection, yours, will feel mighty insignificant don't you think, but I know it hurts just the same, and for that feeling to assuage, a hug my friend.

For some reason the poetry number one sales list keeps rejecting me...
Or maybe simply ignoring me...
I am in hot pursuit of him...or her
Maybe even a stauker
Rejection...so very many types of it there are
From love interests to fashion to personality to race..religion...beliefs...
Oh endlessness of it...

Ahhh old friend we learn the pain of rejection at an early age as tots we may be left out of playground games, as teens turned down for a date with the prettiest girl, in marraige we may find out that our spouses cheated on us...and in old age...we have the privelage of rejected all...

Rejection is a state of mind that manifests itself in negative emotion. The ability to remain true to yourself under such circumstance is the mortar of the soul. Patrick

These song lyrics and art are tales, tides and twinkling lights - tunes telling stories of warmth and sun, city and sand, paths that lead, and the coins we can keep in the Karma Bank. Spirit's been bypassed for sorrow, dreaming of a better tomorrow .
