Skeptic On Love
By Katie / Twilightstwin

In the silence I sit and murmur to myself
This must be wonderful, It must be grand
As I envy a couple walking
Hand and hand
Twisted fate hath sent me here
To die alone and wallow with fear
When shall love light my heart
When my mind has strayed
Or when death do we part
The organ breathes with blood
Yet this is what symbolizes love
Hate a dagger and peace a dove
Stranger still is how we sleep
Wrapped in blankets we dream
And these dreams do seep
Into our minds how life should be
Princesses, ponies, and puppies of three
Yet what of the nightmares
What terrors await us when we crawl into bed
Screaming from hell and into your head
But these are not the visions of lovers
Or children tucked safely under woolen covers
Only for the skeptics, the sinners, and others
Do these dreams blacken dreadfully
Once it was thought that love was a sin
But now the loveless seldom do win
Those who do not have one to have and to hold
Must be rejected poor souls who wind up tired and old
A carriage passes me and I turn my head
A bride and a groom blushing red
Two doves above tear at my heart
As I sit alone with no where to start
This must be wonderful, It must be grand
To have someone to sit and hold my hand

I know what you mean by these words
I just see things on the flip side
things that I see like that give me hope

Very nice Twilight, think we all feel this way, when you search for that true one and it always just seems to be just out of your reach. Thankyou for sharing your poem. flowerforyou
