Love Carvings

I looked at the heart-encased initials on the table, 
a couple's lifelong promise turned  employee's weeklong cleanup project, 
I wonder if it's gone yet,
Love is set in minds not etched in someone's regret


Contagious

So they say that it's
contagious.
Let's try and spread 
it so we're sure.
If someone's got it,
let them in.
Open your door.
Is it a problem that
there's not yet a cure?
We've already
caught it and we only 
need more.

Love

The Protector

Injustice coughs its blackened breath.

And like bracken he wraps himself, prickly prickly, over the moss drenched mud. 

The fog receads, its spite dulled. 

Twisted branches fall, softly softly, leaving the gentle fern to protect the wild things that live beneath the hearth.

all directions from the same place



all directions from the same place 
don’t lead to the same place
  that’s why you’re a butterfly
     and I, a moth, but one family
         the abandoned lawn
            but I care about you
        you need to know your battles
   and how to choose your directions

Pleasure Clauses

We are the only bonds of pleasure
We drink a cup of wine at night
A slave in the illusion, in the illusion of our pleasure
Don't think otherwise, don't have a heart

Alone in the night of the rush of dreams
Steps slowly in the dark
Bring your imagination with us
We are the only chains of pleasure in illusion and calamity

Stud In Mud

Poverty possessed – need to own Steal away to possess by me – and me alone Ludicrous to obsess need to love Stolen away to either be free and obsessed or jailed and alone With time displaced time we’ve grown
Between a hard place to face and a stone. By J.Thornton

Premium Member The Chase

No words to capture
elusive love.

Chased,
with boxing glove 
laced to hand.

Attempt to catch 
a feathered dove;

make a lasting stand.

Stalk 
whispered wind

in noon-day traffic.

Place a collar on a flea.

This vessel spent, so suddenly
does seek repose.

Lord knows,
we do our part.

Patching daily hatred 

with a beaten heart.

I will transform the world in need If magic happens in one finger flick Forgetting greed, doing good deeds I will transform the world in need Ending all wars; planting loves' seed Giving cure, healing all that are sick I will transform the world in need If magic happens in one finger flick (c) Olive Eloisa June 29, 2014 1:48pm

For You With No Love

Gray is the loveliest color
for YOU who misplaced your heart
along this man-made way,
for YOU without soul who crunch yourself
into the parameters They gave YOU–
and saw off what does not fit–
for YOU who bolted the really real 
things to the floor (a kiss), 
yet wonder why your smile is dysfunctional,
for YOU with blood that pumps weak,
life will be too long and sadly brief,
for bleak are things with no LOVE!

Authority

I've got no authority to love
There’s the uproar
Who’s going to side with a poor man
many obviously,
 
No money, no power
my words don’t matter
Who’s going to make this stranger’s
dream reality
 
Talk to my mother, whose smile I live for
Talk to my father, whose words I live by
Your Majesty and I
 
Right now we are two different species
But it’s alright I've faced much
A few thousand jabs won’t kill me yet

Teenage Confusion

How could this be.
He said I was perfect,
As he looked at me.
A common misconception...
A deadly lie he told
Now I'm a rejection?
I lie hear so cold.

My vision blurs,
So does my life.
Nobody who cares
His future wife
But that was all gone.

Sweat rumbles of frustrated birds,
escape and now rumble in my mind.
Thousands and thousands coming in herds,
Why so hurtful, please be kind.

Love is harmful and so blind,
Pay it's price or forever hide.
