Beats & Butterflies

I love you He whispers in her ear.

She merely laughs,

did you expect her to say it back?

Her heart couldn't give you that satisfaction,

it's cold & still like an ice block.

Without beats & butterflies,

all those lovely things have gone bye-bye.

Ice queen! lol! Cool, calm in control but I don't envy someone in her situation. It's really interesting to see a poem break out the normal 'love poem' mode and head the opposite route and your line "without beats and butterflies" is powerful and a really well chosen title!

This is probably my favorite I've read by you. It's so well-written and flows so nicely.

sound cool and love may be a for letter word but you gotta be careful when you let it out if you say it to much it loses its meaning

Ooh, like it! A nice, short symbolism involving love. Nicely written!
