If My Face Was a Mirror

If my face was a mirror, Your love has broken the glass, Shattered not seeing clearer, Puzzles present to past. If your womb was of water, Indeed 'twas I that drowned, No sculptor nor a potter, Could craft the curse you've crowned. Some say your love is fire, And I the weakest wood, What made you burn desire? To beguile in my blood. Heavy you are of stone, Atop a fragile feather, My heart you crushed to own, With lies to love forever. Before I was a bridge, Until your beauty blew, My life over the edge, And then I fell for you. Emotions in me entered, As intercourse was nice, Yet serpents in you centered, A heart colder than ice! My trials and tribulations, With you tell like a tale, As sour and rich relations, Of Angels loving hell. If my face was a mirror, Your love has broken the glass, Shattered not seeing clearer, Puzzles present to past.

Wow, this must come from deep inside. I feel the pain and anger you express so well. I hope the writing brings healing Johnny. This has a 7 in my book!

I think you wrote this from what recently happened to you? I really liked the way you described your face as a mirror shattered by her love. Some really great descriptive lines in this poem. Hope to see you on here longer this time!! andrea
