Swan's pain
Luara-lee Nov 2018
I feel her pain and hope for more

Eyes roll and chains twist
Parasitical men attach like lice
Words cloud eyes in rose colored mist

The swan strikes silently a thief tonight

Fleeting moments taking most graceful form.

Of noble birth a carnation is born,
Forever misunderstood and forlorn.

When you're aware of all deception and lies
Your thoughts of death and ruin
Are swept away amidst constellations and

Luara-lee Feb 2019
wish I may
Wish I might
Be the only girl you see tonight

Cold hard skin
dark grey eyes
lemon gin
tempting lies

Don't want more
but these few moments
Not some *****
with many opponents
