Twisted

Twisted

A Poem by ElizaB

Our love was twisted,
From adolescents in uniform
It was nothing but lies;
Bodies informal;
But we stayed,
Spines against the stump
Addicted to hassle;
To blasphemy.
Lies beneath smoke,
We glittered,
With daisies at our feet,
Surrounded by hate and
Sandalwood in locks
We were
Poor, yet rich in youth,
Pennies in pockets 
For economy sweets,
A rare treat
Under stars. 
I grew into curves;
Into his arms.
It had to end;
This stale love;
This derelict heart 
Only for the young. 
We were naive;
Mere dreamers,
And
Looking back now
It was peachy.

Hi ElizaB, thank you for entering 10 Words I Give. Young love; there's such innocence and turmoil all wrapped into a messy ball of naivety and dreams.
"Pleased as punch" with this write. Well done
