PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I know not what for

only that I am yours no longer more

just one of many placed on a list

to think so much heart ache I could have missed

had I not kissed  your pale cold lips

or let my heart be touched by your traitorous fingertips

you can not even imagine the pain that sears my blood

or how so easily tragic tears pool to flood

my gut knots tight before the harsh morning's dawn

when I discover for myself that not only have you left

but everything else is gone with you I suppose

isn't it strange with love what all else goes..........
