Mistakes of Men

By MistressofMayhem

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Never let a man steal your heart; It will be his forever. Men tend to forget to return things. They seem to take whatever they want: hearts, freedom, virginity. Peacefulness that was once felt begins to be covered by a black sheet of power, strength, uneasiness. Men use their eyes too freely. They will undress you with those dark, deep set holes. Their minds show no remorse for anything they hurt and destroy. Then...you are let with the black sheet over your eyes. The sheet that brought you pain and agony. A heart stolen has been thrown away. Lonliness and fear envelop you after that first experience. Written March 12th, 2002 © on Mar 12 2002 01:22 PM PST   0 • 1
