Love's Destruction
you lack my permission
to renovate my soul
I don't want your demolition
go try to make yourself whole
so many distorted priorities
stealing everything of value
purchasing impurities
hoarding all that is untrue
reveling in a cache
of yesterday's pure treasures
turned into a heap of trash
by your sordid pleasures
blood of neglected desires
tears of rejected dreams
lack of fulfillment sires
the deepest of soul screams
true love taken for granted
sweet affection turned away
everything becomes tainted
when passion goes astray
there is no longer comfort
in my sympathetic illusions
merely a devastating hurt
in my destroyed delusions.
