Love,
Drapes me in a robe of passion,
Encrypting a single name on my heart,
The key that opens all doors.
Trust,
An aura of green escapes me,
Circling my head in small memories,
One I hold close to my heart.
Happiness,
Sweeping the burden off my shoulders,
Creating a blanket to cover me,
A warm, smiling face.
Friendship,
A crucifix of chains surrounding my heart,
Where if one link breaks, all the others go,
The flame that burns within me.
Enemies,
A match held to the walls of love,
Humiliation, laughter, and pain,
The wolf in sheep's clothing.
Depression,
Days of winter never seemed so warm,
A single drop of life slides down my cheek,
Wrapping me in a cactus blanket.
Betrayal,
The ripples in a calm ocean,
Watching the Earth crumble beneath my feet,
As I fall to my knees.
Hatred,
Blood stained knife approaches my chest,
Ending my life now in a pool of lies,
Knowing that my heart has given way.
