Finally starting to feel poetic again. It goes in cycles, and it's good to be back The Universe Cries Fear not little girl For when you cry The universe cries with you For when they come with greedy hands And angry hearts aflame To take what they can never have It goes not unseen The stars see And you are not alone in your tears And when the bombs burst And the bullets shriek Rending air and flesh alike It goes not unheard The Earth hears And shudders with you in her sobs And when they come with lying eyes Souls black with their deceit And throw your truth to the dudgeon pits It goes not unknown The ocean knows And she is all the saltier for her tears So fear not little girl For when you cry The universe cries with you
Gosh, I wish it were true. We are intruders here and even the sweetest little girl that lives must be a toxin to this long, long suffering world. Smart line breaks!
Thanks kidder. Do you really think we're intruders though? Seems to me we belong here just as much as any other living thing, we are just not living right. Things could be better, and used to be better.

For when they come with greedy hands And angry hearts aflame To take what they can never have It goes not unseen The stars see And you are not alone in your tears ______________________________ My fav lines, thanks for a good read.
TrippinBTM ..I needed that ... thanks for letting the universe speak through you ...sweet healing words
I loved the bit about the ocean being all the saltier for having cried with her (the little girl). The only criticism I have is of the way you have portrayed innocence via a little girl...why are girls always used to symbolise innocence, all the more the little ones? I'm not sure if anyone else will understand what I am saying, but I know what I mean (I think). Blimey, my head hurts!
it's so...lovely...i don't think i've found the right word..really like it!! made me think of myself...well...love it! take care, keep on writing. luv
