Empty Words

By lupus tenebrae

 



All the words are taken,
shaken from the trees of fall.
Hearts of stone cannot convey,
days into their sums of art.
Such is night to morning sun
none could have my empty touch.

Everyone deserves better than this, but on occasion, I can only give 50% as opposed to 100. This is using a style dubbed kinkimirror sestet, by kinkifrog of course.

    concise but it has a very heavy impact for its size... i'd say this is more than 50%... a lot of food for thought and heart in this...

    This all goes back to the saying, "we're not perfect." It's not a saying to me, it's a fact, but even so this is all we can do at times, give 50%. I'll tell you something though, I'd rather 50% than nothing at all, I think that's the true message or should be anyways. Thank you for sharing, my good friend(Wolfy) =)
