Poem Introduction

Things don't always go the way we would like.

Surveying the wreckage leads one to wonder.

 


 

A Wakened OSleeping Thing 

  
Is love a wakened or a sleeping thing?
must one always be alert
avoiding things that pain and hurt
or can it be left on its own
And savored in a carefree calm
 
Is love a wakened or a sleeping thing?
  does it bury its dead with ceremony
or leave them to die in agony
or can it be thought to last forever
And lived in as a utopia
 
Is love a wakened or a sleeping thing?
  will it slip away if left unguarded
leaving those behind brokenhearted
or is it like a summer breeze
That only lulls then winds again
