A Fragmented Work of ArtA Poem by Nancy KathleenTo you who smeared me with agony
Today - a heavy feeling consumed me
I looked for answers but there's none I could see I've searched a lot of places but you know what's heartbreaking? All I found was an empty spot where I last laid my heart aching. You have painted me with shades I cannot devour But you left me unfinished now the colors went sour I wasn't your masterwork - you destroyed me so well You tinted me with black and white so no one could tell. Was I a canvas? Was I an art to throw? Tell me please tell me - I need to know. Would you paint me again or rather leave me behind? Don't leave me with your sorrow - don't halt on my mind. So slow I was to tell you this But the wind has carried your one last kiss So slow I was to tell my heart I'ts time to rest - I'm not your art. So goodbye my love - this is not where I belong Goodbye to the voices that kept singing our song And when your hand misses the way you used to sketch me Don't dare look back because I'm finally free. I will become a masterpiece & you will look at me with regret You will carry with you all the throbbing from the day that we met You will use the sweetest words-bribe me with your works & shade me all brand new? But I will spittle on your pencils-toss away your papers-this time I do not belong to you. I am a masterpiece. And I do not belong to you. (c) n.elardo © 2015 Nancy KathleenReviews
