Attire

It wasn't that simple to love her
It asked to wear attire
Fashioned with her sorrow
I always felt naked

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.

Came back to this one last time. This is so thought provoking. I marvel at Line 2 and the use of "It." Who is "It?" Must be same as "She." Or it could be 'the situation' the protagonist is in. Some times I over analyze poems...ha ha Still, very good poem. Love it. Thomas

If I wrote something like this it would be at least several stanza's. I've read this many times now and keep turning the pages. I admire a poet that can say so much with so little. Very good work. Thomas
