Feral Girls
Fay Slimm. said:

A woeful tale of female downfall - feral girls who often through no fault of their own lose all hope of dreams - Expertly told this tragedy of Foo Kin Ya..... saved in my favourites and thanks Nev for the sad but needed reminder.

Suresh said:

There are some social norms that humans have placed on themselves, either knowing or should have known are doomed to fail. One of these is coupling of two people for life.
Similarly, expecting two people to love each other for life.

Your ending lines, EACH AND EVERY ONE OF US FINE YOUNG DECIPLES has thrown me off for it implies multiple people.

Maybe I\'m just reading it wrong,
Relationships are hard.

A sound and caring piece of advice Nev. -- life is no fairytale and as disciples we learn about love as we discover its faces in risks taken. A deep and engaging read.

dusk arising said:

Well that\'s life isn\'t it and aptly described by you. The risk we all take when getting involved with someone and the repercussions that partnership can have on the others in our lives.
I suspect an aura of concern surrounds the said relationship to prompt this writing.
Words for the recipient of such a piece to dwell upon.

Beware of Mirrors
Goldfinch60 said:

Mirrors do not show us who we are, they only show the reflection of ourselves turned through 180 degrees. We know who we are inside of ourselves.

I met her - or so I thought! But I couldn\'t see her in the mirror. She must be a vampire. Arrggh!

dusk arising said:

A reflection is a prize for it allows us to see from another viewpoint. Poison to the narrow minded.
Knowledge begat wisdom.

Beware of Mirrors
Fay Slimm. said:

Much food for thought in this verse Nev. - -- an image of self reflects reality if we dare look and insight does not go away...... deep truths hide in these clever lines my dear friend.

Turn Toward the Window
Suresh said:

So did I, but left them scribbled, unpublished... untitled....unfinished

All I needed to know
Is how could you let me go
All I knew
Is that I loved you so

You strayed, you betrayed
Your heart was never in it
You knew it, you blew it
I hope it was worth it

Being free of all that frost
How come I feel so lost
Ever since then I confess
I\'m a mess

Ever since then n now
All we know, love is blind
Yet, I must move forward
Alone, my place, I must find


My words show simplicity of youth and immaturity of composition

Turn Toward the Window
dusk arising said:

A good \'loves epitaph\' written with the feeling of the moment which really comes through. Definitely an \'I\'ve had enough of you\' air about this.
Did it bring the moment back vividly. I expect so. (Mine do for me).

Fay Slimm. said:

Telling it then as it once was - love soured reads as a powerful piece of well-written insistence - - good that you found it to share here Nev.

orchidee said:

A fine write Neville. I tried writing in my shed. The light bulb went out. Couldn\'t see a thing. So I wrote a poem: \'A black cat in a coal cellar at midnight\'. lol.
