South Side Of Love

Barren Soil



The ides of March stared

in the gathering of winter's storm

and toxic laden brew.

Cold-hearted bloodlines ran forth

chilling the winds of change

for nowhere is it written,

That love grows where I am buried.



Thunder times are upon us

the roar rippling in each slice of

dagger-embedded betrayal,

Cutting away what was

tearing apart thin-skinned artifacts,

That you once cared.



Laying here

buried beneath your rubble,

Stone-cold pebbles leading the way

to the arch of your heartstamp

stomped in the toxin

of your soul ensnared,

For I have the last laugh

at your grave-side service,

Where I am left standing

in a place, love will never grow.
