Dichotomies

Tributes to Lovers

You are a thorn
forever pricking my feet-
not allowing me
to move forward.


You represent
all the darkness in my life,
all the ugliness.


And he, he is all the light,
all the beauty
that attempts to
pore into my soul.


But I am so broken
that I can't hold it;
my heart too filled
by these poisoned thoughts.

I have a question..

I have a question 

I'll make it quick

What's a dichotomy?

The surgical removal of a dic?

I realize that my manner's crude

I always try to rise above it

But, for one man in your poem, that dude

For him, I think you'd really love it!
