FLUSH OF PINK

 

 

… the inner gauge is rising to its peak …

 

 

Anger raises its head

as I thrash in my bed.

The hot flush of pink is flowing.

To my brow, it isn’t slowing.

 

I remember his aqua eyes

as he retold his many lies.

I watched the grim line of his frown

as he turned my world upside down.

 

I won’t let him ruin my night.

I need him out of my sight.

No more meetings in the dark

beneath the elm in the park.

 

No more whispers as we walk.

I know the town loves to talk.

I say goodbye to my fickle love

as the moon bows its head above.

I felt this poem in my own heart as I read it. Every word mattered, not one wasted! The rhyming sounded fresh, and the cadence worked very well, almost like a chant...I just loved this poem, because I've been hurt before my self, as I suppose most of us have, at one time or another. Comforting, encouraging write. Thanks for sharing your soul, Susanne.

Fickle love can get us in a real pickle especially in a small town.
It has no sustenance and the bling soon disappears from the aqua, after the brush of passion is gone, Nice poetry today Susanne.

I did my job if you all thought I was writing about a real person. I was reaching into the picture and attempting to bring forth her rage. There must be some actual anger inside of me from past loves. Yup, there is. I guess I added my own as an enhancement.

I think you are a bit more than pink when you wrote this. Perhaps crimson. ;-)

I take it you're giving someone the pink slip.

A well constructed poem of rhythms and rhymes that brook no other meaning than Goodbye, false lover.
