Am I foolish

I opened my heart
A heart without walls
Fragile & weak
Tired … damaged
I bared my soul
My past, my fears
My ghosts.

We shared
We laughed
We kissed
Together we danced,
Like children without cares
In the rain
Under the stars …. I was hypnotised

Your sensual mouth
Words softly spoken
Securely penned for eternity
With meaning and with truth
Kind, affectionate, sweet and pure
We loved and made love …. Do you remember?

Your sensual red lips brushed mine
Your kisses … so passionate
Your smile, radiating the universe, converting dark to light
And your eyes… Oh God, your eyes
Penetrate me, sparkling like diamonds
We were alive, happy, together…. Just us

Smiles now forgotten, tears in their place
Your sensual red lips now speak venom, hate and rage
A once beautiful face now distorted, unrecognisable
Your dazzling eyes, dark, angry… Evil
Your words now destroy me, the agony too intense
What happened? What changed? Why? Why?

I try to forget you, the memories will not allow
I think of the happy times, I smile but the tears follow
My heart is now closed, the walls are back up
Ripped to shreds by the man I loved
My heart burns like a furnace, deep inside I am dying
I loved you then, I love you now,
And I always will
