My Karma

Folder: 
Love/Obsession

warm and loved in your embrace

wrinkles upon wrinkles on my face

the vibes we express

emotions we address

motivate with an unheard grace



you gave a second chance

another try at this dance

our hearts mingled

they no longer single

as we entered a romance



but you were a lie

cuased my heart to die

your actions were cloaked

your love was a hoax

you teared up my clear sky



before the storms, flooding rain

my heart was consumed by pain

my love was spent

no amount of repent

could stop the consuming drain



but then you came back to me

made a blind heart once again see

you gave me sight

in the dark of night

made me proud and full of glee



lightning and thunder echoed

winds and gusts bellowed

they told of deceit

fell me to my feet

the rumor of truth from a fellow



could it be the one i trusted

crossed my heart and busted

all so tender

did she render

all to rot and cinder rust



it can't be true

i cry out to you

tell me not

the info i got

this you could not do



but nothing echoes back

the silence screams back

confirming my doubts

inside and out

as my heart begins to crack...
