Please world don’t be too harsh, <br />On this boy I love so much, <br />I know the truth is hurting and I lie to heal the wound, <br />But when the crunch comes closer, it is he that will burn. <br /> <br />Please chance be nearer, to the chances of good luck, <br />The outlook may surprise me, but for now, all fear but plagues me. <br />I know I have no control over another man’s soul, <br />But if I could pause this world, or visit the prospects to become, <br />Maybe I would know if my placidness on the matter, <br />Won’t be as harmful on him as some. <br /> <br />Please sadness not plague us, as it hurts too hearts not one, <br />May neither mind be in denial, of what is, and what will ensue. <br />I know I’m too stubborn to hold off too long from the skies of higher needs, <br />But if I could prevent this one pup from drowning, <br />Then maybe the real world of knowledge will be his favoured bone at last.<br /><br />Melissa Coventry<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/eagle-10/
