We carry the tears of humanity within the caverous womb of our sensitive souls and spill them out in torturous travail upon pages made sacred with heart’s blood. All the despair elation, love and hate of countless generations contained in our spirits, comprehended with our minds, articulated with our pens.
Ours is the power to create mystic beauty, to inspire, nourish love….. or to wreak havoc and disseminate hatred using only the force of our aura and our words alone. We muse on the meaning of life ….and death,of noble sacrifice, cruel injustice; crying our tears alone but never hiding them..... We are the madmen, the misfits, the true poets of the heart.
I thought I read this before: it has not lost its power or impact. It's truly an honor to be included in this band of misfits. :) Beautifully penned, (((La Belle))), you inspire me. :)
(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.

it was a very good poem. the flow of thoughts was delivered perfectly. i got one negative comment though...the 2nd to the last line seemed to me a negative truth... but well, i could comprehend the main idea..it was a very nice dissertation as a whole.
A write of heart and not pretentious pen. Enjoyed
