HONESTY and HOPE.

by dav.smith

The cool kiss of time, nudges me
reminding me to embrace this clippet of life
to hold fast and keep hearts beliefs strong
pulling me away from doubts whispering secrets

Bare and exposed are my weakness's, love, trust, hope
Love; weakened by many blackened hearts
Trust; torn and discarded by lies born from lies
Hope; lost and broken in turmoil that darkens my sight

But stand fast I do, unwilling to let go of my true emotions
although laid bare, my weakness's will make me stronger
Love and Trust will heal their scares and grow again
Hope will give me back the desire to give my heart anew

Truth also will be my comrade
No more will I lie to my emotions
yesterdays sadness will become todays elation
bringing me closer to where I want to be, with you

Nicely written... I have a thought. The eyes don't lie, your heart does not lie about what it feels eyes are speaking. When all else fails trust your gut... BWP... James...

This is a good piece of poetry my friend, I especially liked the line: yesterday's sadness will become today's elation--poetic and encouraging--those lines will be specifically honoring as well as....happy...and happy to cheer one another..truth.honesty.hope .

I like the way the book is presented.
I am very impressed.

Take care

    I am glad you got a chance to finally read the book, Damon, You will find a few over looked typo's, but I the book was set up with a defined rawness. The beach sunrise on the front was taken about 2 hrs from my home. Please enjoy it. and thanks for the comment. dAVE

brilliant dave. sometimes love, trust, hope and truth are all we have left, when our hearts stop beating for a couple of years - love and peace - paul.

Your emotions are strong in this poem, producing a metamorphosis in the reader. I, too, like the line, "yesterday's sadness will become today's elation."

Nicely done.

Best,

Tamara

Beautifully written, Dave. I love the messages in your poem - they touch us all.
"The cool kiss of time, nudges me"
"Truth also will be my comrade"
"But stand fast I do, unwilling to let go of my true emotions
although laid bare, my weakness's will make me stronger"

How lovely! Wish you all the best, my friend.

I love the beginning of this poem. But towards the end it sounds like it needs to flow better.
