Served with Love

For a year in your heart
It was a second in mine
I could feel the love radiating
Devoured, served in time

The soundtrack none could fit
A beauty broken, left to trip
Hands torn away from others grip
Soul ripped, let it slip

Icy fingers, vines become
Rivers dancing to the sun
Wisdom stabbed until there's none
Swept into a dream, never done

Sparrow calls from high ends perch
Wind begins to swish and lurch
Tree branch breaking falling down
Nothing left for love in town

Over with the wise man calls
Sword and throat a broken fall
Screams of doves, innocent with blood
Devoured, served with love

Author's Note

I guess it's about once wondrous love that was destroyed, but believed as good by all others...
Don't really know. Hope you like it
Open to interpretation

I like this poem.it reminds me of a gemeni i once loved.He never knewwhat he wanted.Everything htat seemed great to him wasn't so great,but he would still pretend it was.Kind of like the love in this poem.You don't want others to know you made the wrong choice,so you jst go along with it

Oh, wow, this was pretty good! I enjoyed how it took a morbid twist there at the end. Very enjoyable.

"Icy fingers, vines become
Rivers dancing to the sun" - I love this line. =p

very well written!!! a strong poem here! there are some great metaphors throughout - the first and last stanza were stand outs - the "sword and throat a broken fall" - nice!!!

I'm not really into poems but I can honestly say that I actually enjoyed this one. If you hadn't left a note, I would've though that was about a non-mutual relationship, which I think probably could make sense too. All in all, it was great :D
