A Poet's StoryA Poem by Jen
Escaping twisted taunted illusions of love
I reached for dangling words pulsating life Comforting and rehabilitating each line to my mind Seeking ease from the lies that chased me here Crumbled up like the love letters on my floor A writer's treasure trove world created by words Releasing all the spinning waves of shapes that bounce off the walls from the voices in their heads Brought back from the Universe put to meaning One reach for a favorite scribe and hope smiles, in the tangled sadness of his words The hope excels to dreams of loving arms and soft nights sharing our dark secrets The story begins as the sun rises and light reveals truth Togther, love protects our dark treasures we keep hidden under masks of falsehoods Hand in hand we stand guard over the other keeping the depths of our darkest secret safe If only this tale's ending was like that of a fairytale Where endings never come and love is a blossom Growing entwined under starry nights Handed off to bright sunny days There is no truth in happily ever afters
