Life At A Trying Time

by ~Sara Felice Stacy (taurus) - Not entered

Mystery Engulfed around the spirit of the man.  
The tall elegant gentleman that could not harm a fly on
his worst day.  Always so quiet, in a distinguised manner of
excellence.  A silent silhoutte shadowing the brightness of 
the sun.

A question of authority being placed in a subtle, but
extraordinary way.  Dark probing eyes of gentle kindness, 
reflecting back with twinkled starlets.  Memories of a hurtful
past, of young women who flocked to his charasmatic personality.

Rightfully wronged, from another life, being crushed into
the present.  Never knowing the reason why, dramatizing life
as if it were a game.  Keeping things hiden as if they were secret
treasures, never letting anyone get up close and personal.

Falling in ways that are not humanly possible.  Feeling as if 
it were all a test, in a manner of speaking.  Learning that
truth can sometimes be lies and lies sometimes the truth.

Watching people as if they were characters in a movie that
yet to have been seen.  Wondering why people put themselves
in certain situations, the pit sometimes being to deep for
the desperate soul to crawl out of.  

Trying times make desperate individuals do damning things,
leaving themselves in utter despair.  A crime yet to be
established in today's society of poetic justice.

An ending that is coming to a full circle back to the beginning.
A door opening to let the individual in, and take up the next
opportunity of a chance at happiness that no one has ever known.
 

Reason for writing:

    I was thinking one day of the first time I met my husband. This
poem is a little of him, a little of me.  There are parts in
this poem, that are about a friend we share.  My mind kept
wandering to this person as I was writing it.  
I have never submitted a poem, and if any that I have ever written,
I feel that this should be the one.
