Sometimes
The cold light strikes
Like a thousand knives, cuts
Appear in your raw wounded flesh,
And then
Blood flows,
Deathly pale, you think you will die
Your body limp, folds up,
Words save you, “I
Love you.”

Beautiful, just beautiful.<3

Never mind what people will think. You like it, you write it. And this simple format is not really simple. So you should feel proud of yourself. Xoxo

I agree it is not simple really. I like the challe ge of trying to put layers of meaning into it. But I do care about people liking what I write, for I feel I wish to share the beauty of pietry, but often also its rawness. I have written some very raw poetry but tend not to post that.
