Two Cents and a Stain

You ask me what I've gained,
split apart and refrained,
what's left of me? two cents and a stain,

part of me wants to remain,
there's one way of dousing the pain,
you ask me what I've gained,

blank tapestries feign,
to abhore you more, I can be vane,
what's left of me? two cents and a stain,

putting me above the blame,
once again the repenter of names,
you ask me what I've gained,

I guess only time would tell?
lanterns stretch above my frame,
what's left of me? two cents and a stain,

no time to fall in love again,
no time whatsoever to my name,
you ask me what I've gained,
what's left of me? two cents and a stain.

Wow this is amazing.
I love the rhyme scheme especially.. its catchy.
Yet this isnt merely a catchy piece, its very profound in its meaning.

Great job!

thanks Joy, everything I write has to as least feel meaningful to me,
the imagery makes this poem meaningful,
I think most will interpret this as a death afterlife scenario,
and thats what it meant as,
its got a main message though,

you get outta life what you put in,
and you have to look past your own eyes or eveything will be oblivious to you

Dear Erik,

Very nice work with the rhyming and flow. Yes, the message is clear....we cannot close our eyes to the small doses of blessings in life as well. Loved this as well.
