An Act of Rich EmotionA Poem by aprilrayneDefining acts of love and
rich emotion Carried in an urn to your
beck and call You usher in the weight of
my abilities Or lack thereof, Kindly coating the tip of
poison with a gentle taste, A gentle smell, A deep intoxication of
your understanding. And you enjoy it, To see me squirm on a hook
for the tiniest pieces Of your heart, The smallest hint off your
words, The faintest suggestion
that you’d care And then swallow it up, Gulp it down in a last
charade that feeds the magic to weave
your wicked mask And beseech me, lay me out
to dry and crack Bent, broken, but still
alive. I’ll continue to hum, the
beat of an ego too big to fail Thump Thump And one day, I will not come back anymore. © 2015 aprilrayne |
