What is Love?

Soft white dove.

Chained & Caged; Freedom Lacking.

 

Watch. Look. Memorize 

Love has a size.

Selfish and smothering; molding just for you.

 

Shadows that whispers your name.

Experience — you'll never ever be the same.

Time lost from the bottle - uncorked seeping memories.

 

What is Love?

Just out of reach. Push, grasp, beg and left to be drugged.

Never does it exist. The mind conjures the delusion that this is love.  

 

Drowning at 6ft under

Easier to surrender.

Sigh. Succumb.

 

Time stopped at that moment

We never star gazed. I just pretended to ride all the comets. 

Walls cold. Room empty. Just me. I scream realizing this is no dream. 

 

There You left me

Tears streamed I couldn't see

Why? Pleading & begging. This isn't Love! PLEASE, Don't Leave Me Here.

 

What is Love?

Soft white Dove. 

Chained & Caged. Freedom Lacking. 

 

I wish you had never turned afoot.

Left. Locked behind bars. Forced to stay put.

Terror rages knowing there is no escape. 

 

Walls cold. Room empty. Just me.

I scream realizing this is no dream. 

What is LOVE — EVOL...ve and never trust Love.
