love can be
complicated
in a good
or bad way
it can change
in a second
just by the words
that you say
and turn quick
on a dime
and turn bright skies
dark grey,  
instantaneous
darkness
even in day
its amazing
when love
when it goes
far away,
an the heart
is not something
with which you
should play,

an so,
like a double
edged sword
it can cut like
a blade
in the flash
of a moment
is down your
heart laid
from the
true sacrifices
an the debt
that you paid
to heavy
to bear it
what the
heaviness
weighed
spreading
and luxate
in pieces
now splayed
grasping
the light dear
as it slowly
can fade
smothering
all false hope
from the hands
that you prayed
wondering why
the heart-
how it strayed?
an regardless of cost
your love you'll
not trade
all you
remember
is the love
that you made
an the person
you love so
is just hidden in shade
unattractive they look,
in an envious jade,
but your still at their side
in sweet comfort an aid
to shelter in all storms
when they feel so afraid
only to find out
it is but masquerade
perhaps some
crazy ideas
that you hadn't obeyed
now just wasting
your time
on a journey delayed
an really not funny
is this type of charade
leaving all
of your nerves
an well everything
frayed
just seeping
through all
yes in all to pervade
as false rumors swirl
an how you are portrayed
then finally a flash
wow,
dead like grenade,
now only to bury
that thing with a *****

but just before-
you do,
you stare-
empty
into the dark
of that abyss
why oh my
mercurial fate
why'd you give me
such a kiss?
all I really wanted
was a chance
at true love bliss?
you  **** it all to hell

an then you fixate
on all the broken promises
pieces of requiem
left in the wake
of that explosion
living amidst the wreckage
like the movie called  inception
to die within a dream?

oh the dear carnage,
you lie awaiting your death too,

wondering what
in the beautiful world
you knew,
could have went
so tragically
tragically wrong?

This is pretty much about the past and how you can give everything to somebody and not realize it's toxic and then once it is talk to you still have difficulty getting out of it. Also the after-effects of how past relationships if you can't see the beauty in the pain can affect the picture and how you interact relate with new love. Trauma can heal tho with open mind and acceptance. this one person might not actuallyhave been that bad but he said I didn't obey? Well oy vey say what? Lol this is a lot about not holding onto the past - i think anyway. This is one of my say it in a rhyme series I haven't done one in a while. Love you all. ; ) Ma
