reasonable facsimile of rapture...

Liquid passion elixirs,

        wildflower's deception

              hell's loaded gun

weapons of a

      fruitless heart ~

cut through nectar'd 

        endearments

like a knife splits 

         drawn butter's foam

shot 'tween the eyes 

         of a spirit's blight,

spliced together

in a reasonable facsimile

               of crap shoot's game,

     

rapture's torturous

bygone misconceptions  of

                   foregone conclusions

Sigh, I can see you're having one of those days love...the one I read this morning could have went either way emotionally but this one hurts...I was actually just getting ready to read the other one you wrote today, but the title gives me some inclination of what's in that one...'wildflower's deception' says an awful lot...flowers are supposed to be beautiful, not the types of things to be deceptive, even a 'wild' flower...when I first looked at that photo at the end, I thought it was a sinking heart...I suppose it was meant to look that way, but either way it's an adequate summation of my reaction to this piece...still your words and images are painstaking and beautiful even in their darkest hues...hope you're doing alright my dear friend...

Betrayal always hurts like bloody hell, old story, but still bleeds. Luckily, I still love wildflowers. :) Thanks sweetie...

So much illusion paves the way to substance... A wrenching piece, Frieda, you make us feel, and remember...

'So much illusion paves the way to substance'...what a great line Rita and so so true, grazie mille...

I have felt this way too.
Too many times, with too many guys...
Very passionate writing.

Betrayal my Lady is sometimes a two way affair out of which no good ensues. Another poem of angst in heavy metaphors of anger, disappointment and bitterness.

Not usually simultaneously John, it's usually one that takes the giant leap first...

[John Alexander McFadyen]

But when the other says the words but does not follow with deeds tis a deathly silence that ensues.

[Frieda P]

That's a whole other debate.........

"weapons of a

Strong sense of betrayal portrayed here. Very strong wording in this work. Loved the read.
