She sang a long song
profound in sound
that made men sin
and knees to bend
correct she wrecked many
a home because she honed
the skills to clone
a fantasy or two
and made wishes come true
until a man that played a hand
she couldn't understand
he wasn't moved by her grooves
& his ails she failed to soothe
He saw her for the woman she was
which caused her to pause
she wanted to know more
of the man behind the name
because he wasn't the same
causing her to change
and think about who she really was
Very well written piece. Thought provoking. Loved it. This too is a masterpiece. Can I have it? It sounds like something I would write. :)
Damn!!! This is some off the hook truth tellin!!!! My husband had a similar effect on me and made me pause and re evaluate all of the games I was so fond of playin, take a hard look at my self, realize that he loved me for the person I was inside, for once, the packaging didn't matter, for once, I did not have to run to the bathroom and cake on makeup in the morning for fear that my 'picture perfect package' would be discovered as a false front. He made me feel my own natural beauty, freed me of all the years that had warped my world before. This poem really spoke to me and I was feelin you probably on more levels than this poem was even intended to have, Damn! I gleaned a lot from this one and LOVED it! MMmmuAH!!! P.S. you have been on fire with all of those haikus!!! :-) P.S.S. Yes that post on my page was indeed meant like you thought, covered in a roundabout disguise, you are quite intuitive :-) Hee hee Love Ya!!!
