Fugitive

Poem Artwork

By all accounts you are a
fugitive:
deserter, defector, detractor
and traitor
to your true st self and me,
in hiding.

There are those who
would hunt you down
because of what you took,
how you left me,
betrayed me with a kiss
in darkest night.

As for me, I have no need
for retribution;
I desire merely your safe return
with my heart intact
that I might welcome you both
back into my life.

Make no mistake: you are
a wanted man.

I like that... it's like an emotion almost angry combined with one of almost love... ;)

Startlingly lovely.
The transition in this piece is enjoyable and the emotion is genuine.
You seem to write for release as I do. I admire your work.

Startlingly clear and in bold type: WANTED!! Neither more nor less will do. You are staring unflinching down both gun barrels here, Dawn, and he must be in your sights! If this doesn't rock him to the core, he must already be "dead"! Your focus and concentration are absolute are you last lines speak of being both hunter and prey. Very well done! Like this one a lot.
