PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

it was such a beautiful letter

you managed so easily to suck me in

your thoughts were perfect in their

pitch and emotion

why, they made me want you all over again

you are like an enveloping riptide

all the beauty was gone before I had

enough time

to even think to try and save myself

you're so good that it actually makes you

dangerous

my equilibrium never stood a chance

I think instinctively looking back

thats likely what scared me most

well,

that and the fact that you owned so

many guns

and even to this day

all remain so fully loaded.............
