The Curse ( A Lesson In Real Life)

[dvlteddybear]

I figured that is was time for me to stop being just a voyeur on this site and actually partake in some of the festivities for myself. So here is my first real poem and the one that means the most to me. Send replies and I hope you enjoy it as much as I have enjoyed writing it.


THE CURSE

To love so much
to care so much
to be so full of life
it kills me all inside
to know this is my strife

In a society in need of love
when everyone is in pain
it hurts to learn and understand
that friends are all I'll gain

To love those that are above me
and be loved by those below
to wish that they could see
that I have so much to show

Those trifle words they use
like I just and I wish
are nothing but masks
for their own selfishness

To have friends that care for me
but to be for the worse
for true love I may never see
and this is my life's curse

I read this sometime after you posted to my thread. I've come back occasionally and finally thought I'd leave a comment.

I can see how this would be one of your favorite writings. A lot of sadness and longing, but with a lot of meaning.

Maybe you could post another one of your favorites?
