Mirrors of Love

Ah how blind a lonely heart walks

Onto the dangers of loves page

Like an emaciated lion
walking into a bated cage

Whoa is he who lends a helping hand

To be bitten by the friendly dogs of sin

Yeh is he who perseveres into the light

Who defeats the shadows of the night

I beckon to you all

And of thee who shall fall

I challenge thee to live a life in love

Disassemble a trap of despair

For one you think the world of

I shall help to plant the seed

But only you can water it to grow

Seek the answers in your hearts

And in them God will let you know

Mr. Lopez,
I really like where you are going with this. There are a few mispelled words, but I am not going to say because I might not spell them correctly myself, ha. So, with that I will say that it is the thought you have here of love and I especially like the following line:

"I challenge thee to live a life in love"

This is what it is all about. Right on!

[Mysty Rayn]

Wonderful piece. Another great write you have put together.

Ye is he who perseveres into the light

Who defeats the shadows of the night

I beckon to you all

And of thee who shall fall

I challenge thee to live a life in love

Disassemble a trap of despair

For one you think the world of

I shall help to plant the seed

But only you can water it to grow

Seek the answers in your hearts

And in them God will let you know

I like it, I really got pulled in when I got to "Whoa is he who lends a helping hand..." and then again at "I beckon to you all..." wonderfully done. And as you say, you can plant the seed but only the rest can water it. I think maybe the title should be something to do with the "Challange" but that is only my opinion, I just felt the piece led me to that point somehow... Great job Mr L. ;)

Beautiful, ML. I see this write to be describing the restless and lonely hearts in any place that lash out at those that try to help them and encourage them. It has long been said that: "Hurt People-Hurt People." And yet, all of us have the ability to disassemble the traps of despair.

The only part that lost me is this:

Seek the answers in your hearts

And in them God will let you know

Did you mean, Seek the answers in your hearts and God will let you know what they are?

One typo: Ye is he who perceivers into the light (Did you mean perceives?)

All in all, great write. Carole

True, love can be a painful gamble for some; and those who are hungry for it won't realize the danger of giving their hearts to the one who would destroy them. I see you ask of them to pull away from their traps and try to find real love...to help it grow: that it should be returned as well. Good message. Be well!

[K. Aurora]

My dear Mr Lopez. this was an wonderful poem! It carried a strong message of how love can be a two way street for the unaware. How people often step blindly into it, not realizing the faith they must have to be able to make it work.

I think a good title for it would be Love's Gamble. or perhaps Mirrors of Love.

I really liked it's flow, it read smooth and had almost a song/chant quality to it in my opinion.

Thanks for sharing!
