A Metaphor

A quote about love.

"How cynical it is to pluck flowers from their roots,
only to adorn the home of a lover with a metaphor
that will wither away. If love is ripping apart a flower
from its home, I'd rip apart stars and leave a garden
of galaxies within your heart."

A beautiful testament to love!

[Gio S.P.]

Thank you, John! All I strive for is to produce writing that speaks to the soul. I'm glad that it spoke to yours!

[Tom McRoberts]

Very nice. Great piece of metaphorical one-upmanship! Keep it up!

Thank you so much, Tom! I've been struggling for quite a bit to receive recognition for something that is not a hobby to me but my passion. Writing is what I want to give to the world so long as my heart keeps beating and even afterwards. Expect more well-written poetry and chapters from my upcoming novel, 'Autumn Leaves'.

I'll have to keep an eye on you, your passion is very admirable. It's hard to break, but I joined this site about 5 days ago and I'm feeling very optimistic. Such passion and community here, yanno?

[Gio S.P.]

Of course! I, too, joined just last night but I had an account active before this one. My writing wasn't very good and it lost a lot of recognition so I took almost a year to put as much passion and raw truth into it that I could muster. And now I'm back and entirely positive that this will be better. Your writing is beautiful, truth be told and I admire the passion that you put into yours. Great writing influences locked potential in other writers.

Thanks, man. That's the best attitude to have, that forward momentum.
