KaraA Poem by AmelieLove, what has become of me?You’ve done yourself too little took away laughter that never reached- your throat. You kept your heart in a glass jar dead of air; it functioned
too well with- plastic tubes and metal screws. You shut your
world for the only love you’ve known- For you thought it was all your own A slow dance to a swooning jazz melody is all you wanted But you end up waltzing- to your own; pain. (you embrace it as cold fire.) You kept your favorite memory like the first rose given by your father to your mother; tucked between the pages of her Bible. You caught yourself before a spiraling staircase: At the bottom your love awaits. You do not want to meet him. But you have to hear it from his eyes; and you chose to go down and down and down and down and down and down and down and down and down and down and down and down and down and down and down and down and down and down and down and down and down and down and down and down and down and down and down and down and down and you came horridly beautiful as a cosmic crash on Earth. You wish you could’ve been more broken. ( I need to be whole
again.) You wish you could lie there all day, all week, all your
life. (I have to stand up and find my balance.) You wish you’d turn to sand, to ash, to dust, to a molecule, to an atom. (I have to magnify myself in my eyes.) So the winds might blow you away or transpire with the rain and you’ll be gone forever under the warmth of the sun. Your love; is your own Pandora’s box. © 2012 AmelieAuthor's Note
