If we could love
We would die swiftly
From swords in our mouths,
Sharpened by the grindstones
Encasing what we were
Before we loved,
Rending open hearts beating
Softly in exposed chest cavities
Bleeding love all over the floor
Another victim of caring
Too much while blindly seeing
Wrong in what isn't, right in what shouldn't
Be.
......................................................................
Emptiness
Emptiness burns
Like a cigarette butt on fresh newspaper
Spreading
Consuming
Eating all the stories
Until nothing is left
But ash and burnt fingers
......................................................................
Fire
Love is
Hot
Like fire
A campfire
For friends
Is warm and cozy
But
The passion of a bonfire
Is a safety hazard
Stay safe, kids
Don't burn up
......................................................................
Mother's Love
A mother's love
Enfolds
Embraces
Comforts
Like a warm quilt on a cold night
Oh no!
The quilt is heavy
Can't get out
Don't suffocate
Under mother's love
......................................................................
Six Word Stories
Six word stories
Tell six things
Darkness is easy
Why not happiness?
