Someone dear once told me
that it was something special
to love one's fellow man
(or woman, as the case may be)...
But, sometimes I think
I would like to harden my heart;
too easily I walk through briers
upon the path of misplaced devotion,
hurting myself by caring
where, perhaps, it was better
I never ventured or returned.
Sometimes I want to make war,
tear down the barriers
erected to keep me out
and show those who have hurt me
the voracity of my emotion --
though I know it will do no good.
I can see that evil for what it is,
and I would rather be done forever
with the tears and harsh words...
but between some of us,
there is nothing else left
no matter how much loving came before.

And missing her, despite everything. May be it's the weather making me sentimental.
I suppose I can't just walk away and forget after so long -- the skeletons and demons we choose to bear. |

 reports, 1d 12h agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you  the news article as well as check out the individual pieces.

We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community. |
