Spoken word~ Revolting love

You held your heart

I longed for your touch

lessening my trust

maybe it was those pretty brown eyes

compelling me blind

or even the smile you wore well

I hence to doubt was a lie to soon to tell

you see I ended a love story, only so I believed

it was more one sided he preached

you protected your heart when I gave you all of mine

your faint fragrance far from fait failed

spectacularly since it familiarized the memories I still grieved

the scent reminded me of the silky sweet rose pedals

which mask the air

where we first met

till the last day I tell

It’s blooming ever so looming

sent so moving

I wanted to stay back

back as far away from his threshold as possible

somehow I find my self drowning in the waterfall of what once seemed to be love

our bond was like a waterfall,

wherever you may be

I feel like one with the rushing pulse of your heart

the impeccability in the scrutiny once gleamed bright

enchanting my perception to your love in silence

sometimes I believed you were evil casting a sinistral life over me

for the devil himself was the fellow angle who completed that belief

your looks got the best of me

taunted with my feelings bringing me about your doorstep that night

you turned me away

in horror you yelped I wasn’t the one

leaving me to wonder if my presence was worth anyones time

memories only flooded back towards me slapping my confidence down deeper than my grave

your love was like chocolate, smooth and milky almost too tempting

as when I see you

reminding me of lips softer than butter

teeth white as snow defeating the vain

I struggled to play out

hair darker than the vast ocean beneath

rising to horizon of realization

diamonds are a girls best friend,

for they don’t run away

but loyally stay of it’s treasure I cherish

twinkling with love when I am without you

yearning for your love

our love

which no longer exists

I am now trapped willingly between the difference of love and pain

and once I fled of your monotonous nightmare

reality rescued the piece of me still alive

the pitter patter of your heart beating through my veins

mute from the plummeting truth

I chose to leave behind

because there is nothing more human

than a soul

filled with the beauty and kindness

vacant from your grace

I shall not cry

since heavens above have done so for me

In the eyes of innocence

The place we call a world of peace is a dark shadow

inquiring peace to be irrelevant of the ruth of hurt decaying at our presence,

which lurk deep within our souls.

Citizens of their own homeland seek refuge

from the pain sunk deep through innocence.

In search of freedom from the ill mannered fright,

that keeps them accompanied aside the enemy to fear.

Grief slips and scurries through the spaces between our fingers,

we conjoin them willingly not realizing the bombing reality

of the five year old washed up on the side of a shore in Turkey

or the abandoned necklace on a single mother beaten neck, colourful of blue and purple,

a reminder of her husband murdered before her and her families eyes.

Yet the greed overpowers the human in us, breaking lives we conceal in lies.

Acceptance in the bodies at the delicacy of ones tiny finger tips

hopeless to see a future paved out of resilience from a past so horrendous.

War is an entity of darkness

masking itself in the cloudy air of toxin and sorrow in silence

seeking Gods help praying to be bestowed by angles summoned surrending freedom

in volumes of silence

The broken hearts of millions and the bloodshed of lives seized

scattered across what they call home.
