A Poem for the Left

by @valora-brave

I was always convinced you could feel me We were of the moon and of the tides (But) too stubborn to attempt another ride I wanted you to know everything in my eyes. The truth when I deliberately told you lies and the expense of a life in a heart before it dies. You would be gone too soon All of this and heaven too I would wander, I will roam I will find decadence in alone. I would dream, I will achieve Everything only after you leave You are the anchor chained to my throat, You are the sand in a shallow moat. You are the power in my stare, You are the guilt after an innocent dare. You are the face in the shadows on the wall You are the fear in the Devil's call The invitation to come in Join a game you cannot win. But I play, but I play And forgive the day Forgive and move away The state lines you will cross To lasso me in, refuse your loss Of my heart, of my head Your place in the poems I have read
