Love Poem: I'M Sorry

I'M Sorry

Pink strips and white teeth
Underneath your mind, let’s kiss
With our fist, under the tree
K-i-s-s-i-n-g
That’s when we first realized
Our eyes were swimming in the same water, colored
Green and blue full of morbid views
Ten times crazier, you scream
‘They poisoned me’
The bark was brown and your hair stood up as
Lightning colored the sky pink
Eyes stained with black tears
Continuing through this retired rhythm, we
As one,
Give in to what time has whispered to us,
We are done.
