Fright

Fright

A Poem by butterfly

Love is a tragedy to describe
it keeps me awake at night
its hard night after night without him by my side
Is this the destiny for my life?
Loneliness and mice?
I tried to get this out with peppermint and cinnamon
they keep coming out to run
i might have to get the traps
i never said we could be roomates
meanwhile i can still feel heartache
keeps me awake at night
am i just lost in loneliness
i am almost forty 
i never had a prom date
no diamond ring
i lived with a man who declared I wouldn't make a good wife
The next guy wanted me as a side to his already married life
Makes me want to cry
sometimes its alright
Rather be alone then with the wrong guy
Love is a tragedy that keeps me awake at night
When I die will my dog eaten bones be the only thing left to find?
The fright keeps me awake at night
the crazy world, loneliness and mice
I tried to get them out with peppermint and cinnamon
I am determined for this war to be won
No one said they could be my roommate
meanwhile its this fright that triggers heartache
how do i save space?
will i never again feel love's embrace?
the sky is grey cold with rain
thunder and lightening makes it all so frightening.

This is so well written and expressed.
Full of powerful emotion
