it’s pouring all over our destiny,
this staining of fears,
this recognition of falling.
love was a word, not a meaning.
and the sight that we
received from this burning light
only led us to become blind.
by death’s chimes,
the poison will strike.
because that picture deserves
to be strewn across your
carpet,
and my smile deserves to be
stomped upon.

i kind of get this right now, seems like i might be going thru similar things but i'm honestly not sure and that is what is intriguing about your poetry. generally it's hard for me to interpret lol. i really liked the last line, and i'm glad you shared this. thanks

I love this one- just as moving as your other work. Your words form such tangible memories... particularly the last line. Great job!

Wow. Short, yet so incredibly powerful. Especially this line, "Love was a word, not a meaning."
It's hard to pick something I like best about this because it was so good, but I definetly liked the end alot. Thanks for sharing, this is going in my library.

If I could fall asleep tonight
you know I’d dream of you
and wake up wondering
why my heart is so cold
