Love withers…
It droops
from the frail limb of life
it sags like a centenarian’s skin
and sores as an old lesion
mocks at you drives you insane
stabs hard, then leaves in pain
and drowns like was never there
entangles you in an unseen snare
then fades out with the gust of time
gets brushed from the memory's rhyme
Love slithers down as an escort’s gown
n dies ….!
