Burdened Love

Burdened Love

A Poem by I Am Svetlana

I could love the Devil
among butterflies & faeries,
until I realized
it's a full-time job.

It's a lonely life.
Simple, so simple.
Longing that never leaves
at the center of poetry.

The sun is in the way.
Are we on the
other side of the world?
From sunshine into shadow.

There is such a beautiful, painful wonder in your writing. One can feel the light, fluttering on each butterfly wing... one can taste the shadows... the darkness when the sun is swallowed... So grateful that you share your poetic soul!
