To Mr. and Miss-understood





PAD Challenge day 26: For today’s Two-for-Tuesday prompt:
  • Write a love poem. Or…
  • Write an anti-love poem. 



Sometimes I cannot bring myself
To shape thought
Into serviceable words,
Sturdy,
Honest,
Good…  
Love wars, scars, gives, forgives
And is seldom
Understood

Sometimes all the gaudy words
In the world
Are not enough
Better, 
One
Simple,
Uninhibited,
Nothing-expected-in-return
Act of love
