the problem with being a lover

is that you poor so much love

and energy into a soul

but they take and take

and will never give but

you.

you end up believing.

and so you march on naively

knowing full well he's just another leaf

on the same old tree until.

*********************

until she was seventeen

only a girl

with the power of a woman

at her feet

learning to be scared of the life

that's inside her

growing stronger each day

and finally reminds her

to bring back the fire

he stole from her eyes
