Broken Hearts Can Ricochet

deadpoetweeps

Screams dismissed as audio hallucinations

Delicate caress dismissed as a light breeze

Undeniable emotion dismissed as remnants of dream

The familiar warmth massaging your heart dismissed

 

Where in your design of soulmate was I delinquent 

Had me a complete believer as you were  blandiloquent

Never had I suspected you were dentiloquent

For you I had always remained magniloquent

 

The kindness you mastered to disguise your autolatry

So high above everything was the pedestal I had you on

Which mattered not, wasn't my pedestal you wanted

Emotional flatline put the poet on a slab

 

Yet somehow the coffin lid doesn't stay closed

Reanimated there must be some poetry left I must compose

No matter how long dead I never decompose

Anew ready to die trying....again......I suppose
