I must turn you down.
Shrill desperate pleading,
Will not drown out the volume
Of sad tears, that do not dilute
Your sobering whine.

The pale frown
Of your porcelain mask,
Fired in a kiln of melancholy;
Has no striking match.

We have nothing in common.
Not even this hallowed ground to a halt
Temptation, to wallow
In your seductive sorrow.

I feel no compatibility,
With your combative inability,
To vanquish your defeatist attitude.
We no longer speak the same language.
I've no fondness for your fearful font face.
I've decided you're not my type.

I like it. Keep writing! :)

Thank you very much Peggy.

I'm pleased that some of my writing resonates with you.

Thank you
It put it into words what I have felt and been through

This type of introspection and honesty is SO hard to do!
Even with an unfair self calumniatory pendulum swing...we come back to balance.

Well Done! (Don't) "Drown out the volume"!

Thanks Annie and Beach. I'm pleased something in these words connected with you.
