PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I shall be the deepest hunger

to your driest thirst

second

but only to

your most fabulous first

patient generosity to your

moment's worst

but never in deed nor in doubt

shall your offered love's undeniable

proof I ever curse

as you are

for me

the child of promise

my ever so beguiling

yet murderously

Dear Hope...............
