Beastly Beauty

Mean from the start, depicted by fury. A beast lies in you, from the belly of your torment Sour & snarling, with each word you spill. Lonely is your heart, unwilling to chill. Severely damaged goods, not my fault. Feel the coldness in the air, gone as you depart. Not a sight for sore eyes, whenever you pass by. Even your shadow, quivers with despise. Somehow in this lunacy, a twinkle emerges From your eyes. A gesture pass that dark, shallow Exterior. A interior full of light. Gaze seemed so gloomy, now seen so bright. A roaring echo rumbles, into a sweet lullaby, By night. Beauty lost & found, in the strangest place. Bewildered but transformed, love has found its place.

Hi john,,, I agree with you, love should be patient & kind, all the time...but "we" live in the real world and sometimes love takes nurturing and , caring for the wounded & emotionally scared...so that it can be, in how its intended, to be...thanks for your comment appreciate your thoughts:) peace & love....cheriex

I like your 6th verse "A roaring echo rumbles, into a sweet lullaby, By night." You are very poetic and painted the image beautifully
