Afterwards #2

Afterwards #2

After the act, she took his heart and soul

and used them both

as a hostage and a shield to hide behind ..

And though whilst never truly lost

she was so perfectly misplaced ..

Dark as a drawer full of shadows folded ..

Oh’ what joys and sorrows lie ahead

he thought, but would gladly set you free,

just so as he, might capture you once again ..

Fff... you made me cry. How can you embody emotions so concretely? It's truly incredible. This poem touched a place inside me that's too personal to describe, but you still found a way to touch my heart. One of the bests. I am so perfectly placed here right now.
I hope you light a candle before you enter the energy fields of others with your great poems!!

Dontcha just hate it when people use your heart and soul as shields to hide behind? It can really mess up your laundry!
And your drawer full of folded shadows resonates with me too. What an awesome line!
