Misery is Cheap

Remember that misery is cheap
Until you fully realize what you've purchased
And those that would suck upon
Pain as upon a babe on motherly breast
Fall into its web and can find no escape
Though evils and doom may come a dime a dozen
Don't be deceived, the cost far exceeds this
For can anyone total a price
As recompense for the suffering of their soul
Is slowly consumed by the hot fires
In the hell they've created themselves?

Powerful and perfect deep thoughts. Misery is cheap and like all things cheap, soon goes to waste

Wonderful thoughts. It's so easy to be dragged down. I love that opening line(s):
"Remember that misery is cheap
Until you fully realize what you've purchased"
Too true.
Great post.

Cheap, cheap, bloody cheap, birds going cheap ceap, is cheap,

but losing everything in a divorce, CHEAP, huh, nowt is cheap lass,

I have to lick road, and that's my breakfast, for lunch I eat slugs n snails n puppy dog tails, but worse of all for dinner I'm forced to eat at THe Pizza Hut...LOL

Sorry in me best Monty Python voice is this.... Nowt wrong with sucking on breast..

Well you know what they say, (Thinks... infact they don't really say it, Andy's saying it, but if it's wrong he can say, well they said it.) You only get what you pay for, so don't buy cheap rubbish, and if God really blesses you, you too could have someone nearly as great as Andy...
