... but er' of heart.
The arrow flies to
miss its mark.
When love shot thus
makes pain begin
The hurtful shaft
of evil wins.
The arrow's notched
the bow is bent
But think before
that missile's sent!
Is it for love
with great aplomb?
Or does it house
an atom bomb?
Cupid's said to be a god.
But he can hurt
as well as laud!
Be ye careful of dismay!
Marry her!
Or you both pay!
I won't say more.
I won't shout.
I'm going now...
... over. *OUT.

"Sin" is simply an ancient archery term for missing the bullseye. We can do this without even being aware of it! But the holy perfection of God reqires it. EVERY TIME!
We cannot be that perfect! EVER!
I'm going to be frank. I have trouble reading because of the kind of poetry posted. Some of these missives of love i can see will end in disappointment and cruel heartbreak for one or both parties! I'm FAR from a *****, but I can't even read anymore due to this and the other tragic postings which grieve my spirit more than I can express! People in SUCH despair! I've reached out to folks, but many times my help has been rejected!
I continually post about the need for a savior. Jesus Christ. I hope & pray these poems don't fall on blind eyes! Please read Alyssa Underwood's posting about the Gospel. It's just under this poem on my site. Thank you!
Please try to understand. I say these things because I LOVE YOU! I want to see you ALL whole, healed & DELIVERED! CHRIST CAN DO THIS! Love is a wonderful thing... but it is NOT A TOY!
PEACE! out.
