    strict

    there was passion
    in the beginning
    and now it has turned
    a lesson
    love is made out to feel
    out of fashion
    constant without
    a question
    has ran out of emotions
    it is lost on repercussion.
    doubt astonish
    it has become a stoic
    it thrives under
    heroic.
    it may never try
    but when it does it sigh
    it is just that
    good
    it fly

    Enjoyed this little offering.... the title throws me off a little bit though.

    This is how I scanned it with line breaks:

    "there was passion
    in the beginning

    and now it has turned

    a lesson
    love is made out to feel
    out of fashion
    constant without

    a question
    has ran out of emotions
    it is lost on repercussion.

    doubt

    astonish

    it has become

    a stoic
    it thrives under
    heroic"

    who am I but a stitch in time
    what if I were to bare my soul
    would you see me origami

    taitor STATELY many thanks for reading and the feedback. I liked the way you scanned it.
    Sorry about the title. I could not think of what to put so I just put
    strict
    instead.
    it may never try
    but when it does it sigh
    it is just that
    good
    it fly

    Loved this poem, cacian!
