Classic Poem

A Modern Messiah

Scarred with sensuality and pain
And weary labor in a mind not hard
Enough to think, a heart too always tender,
Sits the Christ of failure with his lovers.
They are wiser than his parables,
But he more potent, for he has the gift
Of hopelessness, and want of faith, and love.Englishlove poemlove poemslove poems for herlove poetrypoems about loveromantic poemsShort Poems
