Not Love Yet, a Poem

This, of course, isn’t love, translated…

You’re, the Colorful light that Ran Away from the Curtains

Inside that Darkened Theatre

You’re the Silent Firework, Over the River

That Balloon that I Can’t Shoot Through in the Night Markets

not my photo…

You’re, that Ferris Wheel that Broke Your Promise

I, the Lie that Was, Locked in the Room in Midair

You, the Cross-Section Under Construction of My Dreams

I, the Light that Rushed to Finish the Work, Fatigued

(It’s Not Love Yet)

(Not Love Quite Yet)

You’re the New Words in the Dictionary

Refusing the Good Meanings

imprisoned by love…not my picture…

You’re that Black Hole that’s Majestic in the Words

I Will Give You the Right, to Break My Heart

You’re the Twisted Light in the Blackhole

Inviting Me to Fall in, to that Deep-Seated Wound of Yours

You’d, Wrapped Up the Ugly Life Using What You’d Learned

Will You Turn, into, that Beautiful Scar

(It’s Not Love Yet)

(Not Quite Love Yet)

not how love’s supposed to feel, is it???  Not my cartoon…

You’re the Merciful Judge

Giving Me a Guilty Verdict for My Kindness

If I Love You

I Shall Put on My Prisoner’s Outfit

(I am the Prisoner

You, My Most Gentle Penitentiary)

Yeah uh, this doesn’t sound like LOVE at ALL!!!  I mean, why would anybody willingly, turn oneself in, to JAIL, especially when the only CRIME you’d committed, was falling for that certain someone?  And besides, love is supposed to set you free, not make you feel locked up and bound!
