Halfway-Nowhere

Love, is not a moderate image to paint !
I have tread a serene parks walk with colourful abundant trees and beauteous scenes
Yet Love  :
“let me honour those who favour you their forte”!
Lustful young love and bitterness  in sweet red wine
Patience in a white steady car awaiting traffic to mind time
Everything coming together , it is my damn fault you are not mine?

Frantically screaming in the passages of my life
In a motion that is slow they kiss me to complete my life
And touch me I fathom inside me caterpillars turn to  butterflies

Tomorrow im in the hue-less shadows of solitude
And love is a ghost 
Oh it unremorsefully robs me of hope
On an isolated bench gazing the starry nights 
Your identity is a historic illusion of time

When love hurts

When love hurts its like a blink 
when in need of full attention
when love hurts its like the birth 
of sin still in need of redemption
when love hurts I sit under the moon with my insides turning inside out 
with loneliness coming to rescue me again
when love hurts the only thing I see is us reaping our ending 
when love hurts its like biting my tongue cause they already warned me about what you’d do 
when love hurts I wonder if I still love you
