There was no shine in your lustre.

There was no shine in your lustre.

Removing your gloss

I found you

tarnished,

I saw the stains

unremoved

from lover's hearts broken,

as trophies collected,

there was no shine

in your sheen,

but.......

a devil's triangle.

andrew mitchell,
"There was no shine in your lustre" The title was a very good lead into the true meaning of your poem (like an author's note.) Human beings can be deceptive of true motivation towards one another. That is as you expressed so well after the gloss is rubbed off there is a devil's triangle. Yikes! We must be paying attention to the motivations of other's all around. Thank you for this amazing poem. I can be to trusting and this was what I needed to read..................Bless you much! Kathy
