Her Left Hand

By Chameleon

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

For years I was her right man,     love,         friend,                 and hand. Intertwined     Hands We   Were       Together.     Deep was my love, as was         her love, despite our age.       The warmth of our souls; our bodies.         Was my home for three revolutions beyond       The Sun.         Icouldnotbreathbutforher,icouldnotlivebutforher. -----------And yet, ^ it ended. In pain, indifference, and jealousy. as do many. my position was changed no longer was i so elevated for her but she was still the altar of my soul and because of the connection we had that could not be broken i became her left hand used only in assistance and need. never for pleasure. and being attached as i was, i was forced to watch another, a right hand replacement he took that which i had grown he mocked my love for her with each kiss but my problem was not with him but her. and what can a left hand do, in revolt? nothing. ...it can only be severed by the owner.
