My Lover: A Soliloquy

By missmfa

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

I've been told I live in a castle In the air. Young and old, The latter's hustle And bustle Leaves me bare. Why should I care? Why do I care? Cupid's idea of a joke? I am getting broke Into a myriad Of unrecognizable, Unwanted pieces, Each piece glittering And shimmering Because of his love, The Sun. I am the one Lost in a period Of hopelessness And utter confusion, Butterfly kisses Always flying Just out of my reach, Which Is quite unfortunate. I've been infected with Myopia. Before it was anything but Utopia. Now it is everything BUT Utopia. (The Queen of Sheba Is connected to Ethiopia) Alas! Forever, I will be connected To Him.
