where the wild flowers grow

Thick air, pressure and
your satisfaction makes me laugh..
I am battered and weak,
struggling to speak to you
truths...
You will not understand.

Mercy
is not allowed here,
compassion is not defined.
You are a mechanical being,
unwilling to love.

And if
I choose not to idolize you,
I am the one who is wrong.


I can't forgive you,
you are my bloodshed
and hatred.

I miss my unstoppable desire,
you bite my tongue,
I taste metal and gun powder.
You are a weapon
my love used against me.

I should have known,
I should be used to it..

...absurd manipulation.

I can't forgive you,
you put me far and deep into darkness
just to watch me suffer.

And if I call you a liar,
I am the one who is wrong.


Sadistic flowers hang above my head
and I
am slowly dying for
acceptance.

This made me shiver....

Powerful!!  The strength, yet the weakness of abandonment -- it's all felt within the confines of these words.  You are a truly Powerful Poet.  I hope that the wounds left by the Wicked Imp that hurt you heal.  Love forever.

Someone as gentle, loving, and creative as you are, most assuredly deserve more than you are receiving. A mechanical man would drain the life-force out of such a sweet and sensitive rose. Flowers

You are a fine poetess, Kaoru.

Love & Light,

Sad, isnt it?  How many of us can relate to something that cuts as deeply as this does?  It makes you wonder, where is the point?  To be repaid for loving unconditionally with spite and hatred... I will never understand the meaning of hurting those who love you most.  Sadly enough, I too, relate all too much to this touching piece.

HugZ to you warm lady.
