Love,
Simple,
Peaceful and fulfilling
For some, for most.
Love,
Multiple personality disorder
Or possibly,
Borderline personality disorder
For me.
A voice that speaks sublime,
That chants his name to the sky
But suddenly, a makeover!
The lucky clover turns to ash
And belladonna comes to crush
Fragile, the soul exposed
You flush!
Fragile, naked to the eye,
Your essence unveiled
Free and available
To users and abusers.
The skin, so soft, translucent
Trembles under his fingertips
And then it cracks.
You blush!
Passion is a rush
Take the stash
Of distorted voices, of conflicting emotions
And make a run for it
Never to come back!
This is beautiful writing and poetry

I feel like there are so many levels to this and a lot of pain. And yet the imagery is so powerful and the emotions raw. Beautifully done.

Love is a whirlwind that comes to change life, when it reaches your heart. It transports us to an unknown world and may leave us with joy or pain, but still, we keep looking for it.
His verses drop those ambivalent feelings that spin the wheel of love in different directions.
I really liked your poem. A very particular style that defines you as a poet.

I like the idea of love being a whirlwind, but I think love has a different vibe and feeling to it for everyone. There is an irresistible attraction to the idea of love that is fascinating. I appreciate your words and the fact that you have seen behind the surface, deep inside the spirit of my poetry. All the best to you!
