where the wild flowers grow

I don't need you
to tell me where I've gone astray..

I already know..

I once wrote poetry of our love,
a reminder to my wealthy heart.
It is shameful now to recollect,

tip
over the glass of
slurred lips,
you were mine..

It is much like me
this moisture on the floor,
unwanted and
disgustingly familiar.
I reek of shallow trust and I
lack the sponge-like qualities..

I no longer feel
sympathy or
even intact at all.

It's so misty when
you fall apart,
one eye rolls into
a mess of dust, whilst
the other
closes in fear..
The jaws are dripping,
tails are twitching
there are no more rules to follow..

When you become an animal,
or a carnivorous feeling..
Projecting your fleeting love
and protecting your species..

they hunted morning doves

your wings will depart, convulsing,
involuntary..

when there is no choice but to
watch miles pass quickly,

you are home.

sad indeed, but it seems cathartic...beautifully done

Beauty is truth, truth beauty

You are my heroine. No matter what you think you are, you are something to many.

This is an outstanding bloody scream in an empty house.

Your analogies are so masterfully penned, Kaoru. This poem really leaves me speechless to describe the feelings you evoke.
