Our Love Took Flight

OUR LOVE TOOK FLIGHT Written by: Catherine Reinke Poems of others I’ve read to you of my love lost, heartbreak and sorrow. But to you neglected, rejected outstanding and true, this poem will not wait another tomorrow. My head and heart were turned from you, our love steadfast, yet I was blue. My heart split in two. One for he And one for you. In our bed confused our heads Is our love dead? Who am I this aging soul, lost in torment hells death door? Graveyards simmer. My life gets dimmer. No more shimmer, aged and thinner. Sexless sinner. Shut up! Headache shouts no more bed nor sex to couch. Ugly, ragged haggard too can not stand the sight of you. Married bliss lost indeed, looking for a younger steed. So are you… don’t deny, Younger she, has caught your eye. Once together we were wed. Want no other in our bed. On this day all has changed. Wanting not you, nor the same. Hate you replaced love this night. All our years of love took flight. Can not even converse blindly Foul language curse and slimly. You ***** from Hell, can’t stand your yell. All from now from grace you fell this I tell your soul to sell Money maker made you from I. Can not find our love, I sigh. Dollars big green and tall Dollars spent in shopping malls. So small feel I from love with held. Once too many times I fell. Fell from heaven to earth below. Fell from love to hate now flow. Alone not I, loveless whore. spending money, legs closed door. Heart warmth not tender, frozen no hopeful mender. Send me, send me Forgetful alcohol bender. Drink me stupid cold and frigid. Do not touch me sorry so candid. But you destroy all gentle in me. Mean and spiteful, ***** all three. Once a beauty prize for thee until this garage wreck made me. Throw me in trash belong. Let me end my sad, sad song. Life has passed me by this time, another life make not of slime. Believe not then, this future dream. That love is other than it seams. Needy, hungry passion pair devils delight watch and stare. Not at first you took your bite. So slowly steady, our love took flight. Out of sight. Our weak love night. No more love Can I fight.
