Love pools within tender eyes –
Fed by a weeping heart.
Teardrops –
Hot with anguish,
Cold in disillusionment –
Contain you.

You flow –
Slowly down -
Opalescent skin,
That once glowed –
With the touch of your spirit.

The pendulum of the poet’s heart,
Arcs -
Extreme to Extreme,
Never –
Content in the safety,
Of equilibrium.

The cost of ecstasy?
Agony . . .
As the Mourning Dove now –
Coos her song of despair,
That price seems too immense!
I can hear what you're thinking,.. All your doubts & fears,... If U look in my eye,... In time you'll find,... the reason I'm here,.. In time U may come back somday,.. To live once more-- or die once more-- In time your time,... will be no more,...
Johnny Cash (to Frank Castle/The Punisher)
