Vivienne (135 )

Bleakness

Love is not triumphant

It does not win at all

It causes pain and weekness

As a rain of tears fall

Sends you to a dark place

Where evil things are said

Twists your mind to unknow places

Where every thought seems dead

Unable to find a journey

Of where to start again

A bleak path of troubles

Laid out in all your pain

Love is not our saviour

It blinds all we see

It takes away our dignity

And won't let us be

Forward Poetry's ethos has always been to act as a bridge to publication rather than a barrier. This, along with our passion for poetry and creative writing, has seen a humble family business evolve into the biggest publisher of new poetry in the world. We understand that poetry is subjective, that everyone writes in a different style and that what one person can love, another can hate! Our collections showcase a variety of themes, writing styles and poets from all walks of life. They are carefully edited and compiled to celebrate and complement the craft that all of our contributors enjoy poetry.
