Compromised Crucifixes

How to let go...

has always been the achilles heel

in matters of the heart 

as memories seep from a closed chapter

that perfect facade taken down

 by implosions of the mystery

familiarity can destroy,

 make or break the foundations

Dwelling in the comfort

 of sanctimonious dawdle

arrests the senses 

when fallacious promises give way,

compromised crosses

 prove malicious and destructive

writing your eternity's entry in blood

 has naught to do with love

Eternities entry in blood.
Has naught to do with love

I'm going out on a limb here.....
Jesus shed his blood by grace to give us everlasting life. All sinners are forgiven if they just ask. Our names are already written in heaven. It has all to do with the love of our Heavenly Father.

Weird, how do you know these things...and this time I am not being funny.

As usual, this work is amazing, which I know I will find everytime I see your name appear in my RR box, but...how the hell do you know these things. I am sorry, but I can no longer consider it random. You work seems to touch on something that is sitting in my mind, as if my thoughts, worries, and questions somehow you know. Honestly Frieda, I do joke around a lot but I also consider myself someone who looks beyond. It seems when I have a concern, you address it in one of the next few pieces you write. It is definitely weird feeling but exciting at the same time. I may test my theory again soon.

Once more, very beautiful, deep and spot on.

Ahhh you know how I know these things, we all go through such similar scenarios, we're not so different you and I...timing is everything I guess, thanks Jack, always love your reviews>
