A Dark Heart

A Dark Heart

A Poem by Jobira
"

Love, peace and understanding goes a long way. Let's all get along!

"

We're all humans, almost the same;

black and white or red and brown

in the ways, we smile, or grin and frown,

and even cry and cuddle

like kittens with soft soul, which

we’re all fragile and breakable,

for we’re made out of clay of soil.

Although,we have many faces,

and dwell in different places,

or enunciate with many mouths,

yet, there’s ONLY one night or day,

for all, to sleep or play.

Thus, there will be time, in which
the oceans will dry.

the sun will set, and

the earth will stay still,

and the kingdoms must fall, so

a mankind can dance or cry, on that abrupt call.

Therefore, if darkness is enviable,

shouldn't we hang up the frame?

Why some hearts,

Reprobate?

to beat the flame?

No problem!
I believe you did very well. Your description ensure your view of- "life is the same and we have the same needs." We must get along. I liked your version. More modern in thoughts and words than my poem. Thank you Jobira for sharing the amazing poetry.

Very kind and yours was also perfect.
Same emotions described in different ways.

You are right. Your way more gentle and with the same meaning.
Amazing! It has a really good meaning to it.
