Happy New Year Elizabeth....Excellent writing so deep and intense

Again, beautiful. The words you used were just a true view of the world and a darkly beautiful way to put it. Enlightening, and a lovely way to express your opinions. I especially admired the lines,
"I am not delusional and prefer to accept hate as part of my being...but it shall take decidedly more for that I would label it."
There is so much true meaning behind those lines. Excellent job

Another seductive glance at darkness, but is there a hint of forbidden fruit? Immortal passion beyond that sanguine?

Such a true poem. it touched the core of my being.i especially loved the line
"Everything I thought to hate whether petty or true has taught me to be more patient, to figure out why now given time for that luxury." it touches on something i'm going through right now. good poem i loved it and thanx
