Love Poem: Jest

Jest

Jest 

 

Show me your creation, 

Written down in black ink. 

Let me see your darkest thoughts; 

I need a place to sink. 

 

I want a place to disappear; 

There really is no escape. 

If I cannot have somebody to love, 

Then I will no longer fight my fate. 

 

Love is out there somewhere to find. 

All I have to do is look with open eyes, 

But I am blind to anybody who would be nice, 

Because of the tears I have cried, so many times. 

 

So cut me with your truthfulness, 

I want this pain to hurt. 

I am no longer playing just for jest. 

Put me six feet in the dirt.
