Peace and love to all of you. This is something I wrote when I was a bit younger, but it holds true today as well... Usual Waters I’ve become accustomed to this lavish lifestyle that comes with a double-edged sword,Towers of lust and jewels of love no mortal could ever afford. I am writing to you with this emerald pen which my lover has giveth to me, It leaves behind a scent so dear, a reminder of his love to be. And when you see me down the street, please do not stop and stare At my diamond tiara, encrusted with pearls, wrapped with my lovers hair. But the sword comes soon when our love is ruined For these games get often played, I can not bear the single thought That my jewels they too will fade. © Caterina Marra 1997   [Home] [About] [Contact Us] [Poetry] [My Poetry] [Featured Poem] [User Poems] [Three Poems] [Events] [Guidelines] [Legal]
