Love means saying no

Turning away

So the tears don’t show

Walking away

With your head held high

Heart breaking

Knowing it’s for the best

Not for you

But for your beloved

For without you

They will soar to new heights

With you

All they will have

Is you

And you are not enough

For anyone

Burn ' s Night

The snow lay crisp as angel's hair.
As dawn awoke the world lay cold and bare
Was ever there a sight so rare?
What light! The sun! The glow!
Take flight and watch the path with care,
Or sit and watch the show!

Robert Burn is a celebrated Scottish poet. His poem are generally written in 6 line stanzas in an aaabab rhyme scheme, with the a lines written in tetrameter and the b lines in diameter. This was my little contribution today. I picked snow since the East Coast of the United States in currently Under Snowpoxalyse 2015.
