Deception

The smell of a delicate rose That scrapes a nose Flowers in Spring With a smell so obscene A taste of chocolate cake Causing a face to break It's like a walk on a cool beach That scorches the feet It can be just a step in warm water That freezes to ice Or a deserted Island That's no longer paradise Deception in love and life Is like getting married, to find no husband or wife It's a heart that loves unconditionally But is smashed so brutally A trusting heart, that's a beast in size Only 2 be beaten down, by tiny lies It's a deceptive shower in the month of May When all hoped for, was a brighter day Like freezing snow on a night of June When summer ended so very soon Swimming with dolphins, with no care Then spotting a shark there Like waiting Winter, each December And find out it's not coming, or didn't remember Deception has no regard for anyone or any things It destroys like a hurricane, then sings

what a wonderful write, Kayla. you've done a wonderful job of descript here and it flows well in the rhyme couplet form. Uniquely presented. I enjoyed it. So glad it was featured so I could catch it. I will have to see some more of your work. I shall put this one as one of my favs. Thanks
