Love Poem: Face Issues

Face Issues

It’s green _ when we fall in love
Its yellow _ when we were 
hoodwinked by lust
above our pride, but as 
diminutive as a dove
humming a sad song fading to 
dust

echoes of you _ shades of the 
weak
happy-go-lucky mind _ care full 
(careful) death
a heart of onus _ for the soul of 
the meek
the feet of the feeble _ with 
perpetual breath

how does it feel _ to make you 
stay proud?
we don’t say much _ but much 
have been said
Isn’t any way to write (right) the 
flawed?
zilch here _ faces pirouetting in 
the head.

nowhere to be found in your 
presence
countless faces to reminisce
but never lose the essence
face issues _ igniting your non 
existence.
