Sunset Hearts


To entice in a web of intricate lies like chat-
Pace is everything.
Simply verbalize; forget about going along
.Any empty promise will do. 
That’s for a fact-
So trust not on sweet nothings.
Do the words “blunt deception” bring out their ring? 
No need to contemplate or even give a pretext. 
Just like a blog with no tag.
Unless you’re asking for a monologue. 
Get ready to be a so called “darling”. 
Tell me are you that willing?
I’m not saying am a pedagogue 
or putting up an act.
It’s just cause that’s not the vogue-
At least according to those rogues.
But if you still wanna chat-
Remember that you still got 
the real ones- the living.
Don’t shut yourself from those 
who can give your life meaning;
For a heart’s deliverance
is beyond a promise held
within the next sunset.

CNQT

Poetry is a form of passionate expression kindled by an impression unbound by public conviction. I write mainly from two genres : impressionism and symbolism. Choose me or leave me, I'm not a backup plan and definitely not a second choice! Not everyone likes me but then again not everyone matters. What matters is peace and the feeling of being content. Every person is a book, this is just the place to share some pages from my book. Peace!
