Lexis From My Heart

You left me in the lurch why
I long for your love
Your memories haunt me

Coddled with roses, chuck me why
The petals have faded yet
The thorns do not prick

Hate me, don’t ignore me why
Like a peacock lingers for rains
I seek your presence

I can’t forget you why
I am ready to forgive you
Fall back in your arms

I want you to read this why
I can’t write poetry avaunt
These are lexis from my heart

Very expressive work..Reads like you really care for this person who has discarded your love...If it is meant to be it will all work out..Good job..I am glad that you stopped by to read my Haiku "Quick Summer Shower On The SandCastle"..Sara
