Cracks! Dust! Rust! Cross! Poem by Lois Aideloje

Cracks! Dust! Rust! Cross!

Rating: 1.0


A year seems like a decade
Lives look so much like mud
Dreams fail to blossom
Pain seems to flourish
Souls are missing
But there's a ray of hope for another day


A light that changes it all
A hope no man can give
For well is for all if all is indeed well
Peace belongs to those who aren't broken into pieces
Love is for those who don't mind getting hurt

Life is a union of contradicting experience
Pain sticks better than Lovers
Faith is harder than prayers
Talk is so much cheaper than actions
Yes, we choose the easier and less expensive ones every time
Tears are a better healer than smiles.

All I see are cracks, dust, rust, and a cross!

I really like verse 'Faith is harder than prayers', sometimes we pray but we don't really have faith, we don't believe in our own prayers. I liked the assonance in some verses, made feel like I was reading a song.
