Love

I hate how I look at you 
with such destain and such 
because of how i saw your face
with love and a warm embrace 
the way that your eyes glisten 
in the sun wether they be green
blue or brown, but now i will tell you 
it is time for us, like oil and water  displace
i hate that you wore a mask
of perfect love and perfect grace
but i now hope that we can leave this
place with utter kindness
and let each other have our space

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.
