Your love came in like a lamb:
light-footed, and playful
curled against me for warmth
all tangled and matted wool
Your love went out like a lion:
roaring and breaking windows
angry at such a deep wound.
No, wait — that was me.
That was my passion, spilling out
staining the bedding with tears
and the floor with blood.
Your love went out, like it came in.
ABOUT:
For today’s prompt, we actually have a Two-for-Tuesday prompt:
Write a love poem. Love, it’s such a big 4-letter word that can mean so much to so many for a variety of interpretations. Friendly love, sexual love, dorky love, all-encompassing love, jealous love, anxious love, love beaten with a baseball bat, hot love, big love, blues love, greeting card love, forgiving love, greedy love, love in a music video, and so on and so forth.
Write an anti-love poem. Well, kinda like love, but take it back the other way.
