Love is...

Share   Print  Save   Follow   Share on Facebook

love is pain in pretty fishnet stockings
love gives life and takes it. doggystyle.
love is a whore in a baby-tee
that reads "My high is laughter."
love is falling for his livingroom more than him
love is an addiction to whips and chains
it is an unsuited filler to an endless void
love is a lie told with a pretty smile
a gift given with all the wrong intentions

love is the human race's greatest weakness
a need for another living soul
that will forever be shallow at it's core.

love is a joke.

Wow. This author is as honest as the world is full of pain. Bravo and don't let the strong reactions, both positive and negative, that such powerful writing can evoke, throw you.

Hi April,
What an revelation to the casual eye
Or to an ex author just passing by,
Such poetry I consider to be very poor,
As in concept childish and so immature.
Flattery is to a fool a jewel to adorn.
Whilst truth gleams like dew in the morn.

Is that love or attachment? Is love neediness? Perhaps there is a thing called love that gets distorted by thought and the mechanics of brain cells.

But that's not why you get a 5. You get a 5 because this is middle-of-the-road writing for you. Leave middle-of-the-road writing to the experts. Like me.

You're better than that.
