Happy Valentine’s Day

Love
it strikes
like a bolt of lightening
out of the blue
and we are left
wondering
where to hide the bodies

Lay or Lie

What lies
beneath you smile
behind your eyes?

What lies
within your mind
cloaked by your guise?

What lies
spread by your tongue
caused my demise?

21

Some years
the ice goes out dramatically
with much noise and damage
spring thaws may bring calamity
when hearts grow apart

 

Needs work, but I’mm sooo behind.

Scars

You tried to love me
with your broken
glass heart
and I tried not to
let you see the cuts
the damage
the blood

But in the end
I dropped my mask to the ground
and pulled my scars around me
like a blessing

Love

It strikes like a bolt of lightening
out of the blue
and we are left
wondering
where to hide the bodies

 

So here is the obligatory Valentine’s Day love poem, from a slightly skewed view. 😉
