Notes About The Poem

Crimes of Love

MY DECLARATION


FOR THE CRIMES OF FORSAKING LOVE

I am putting you under arrest, my friend
Because you make the poet mad
I've had enough of your cold anger and silence
The vibrations you give off are very bad

I'm taking control and standing on faith
Because I'm married to God above
Your anger can't stop me anymore
Because what you display I'll never call love

There's a theme to this long story
And it speaks of desecration
If you bully your partner when you are in the mood
It will lead to her dissociation

Sometimes I cannot tell reality
Because all I can see is what's wrong
In a weird way I believe you love me
But in 11 years I never felt I belonged

God is giving me a lot to think about
Your love seems so convenient
And I deal with such crap each passing year
I wonder when you speak if you mean it

Your tactics won't work on me anymore
Because just like love I'm blind
So il will take all that i came with
And I leave you with my beautiful pride

I'll shed No More tears, my darling
And I'll feel no more pity or remorse
I know God will always protect me
And he will never let me fall off course

You are under arrest, my friend
Until you learn to grow up a lot more
And just for the sake of all humanity
I'll hold the key to your door

My life is just beginning and I will find the love that is seeking me. Love makes magic happen and that's all that I believe

This is a wonderful write. I agree that sometimes it's best to take the plunge instead of staying in a bad situation. God bless you and your poetry

Brenda, this poem would mean so much to so many women who are almost ready to make the leap of faith. "m taking control and standing on faith Because I'm married to God above Your anger can't stop me anymore Because what you display I'll never call love" Nice one!
