And this I know of love;

And this I know of love;

A Poem by J.A.N

Lay with me

Say my prayers, I have

Their nothing but empty letters in God’s hands

 

Those words, I once said

No effort intended, heart felt

Tongue swelled, always true

I was to you, Darling

 

Never enough for you,

Would I have ever been

Even with the symbol of

Your existents branded on

My arm, and my chest

You rested your head

 

This masterpiece, we carved

With our love, together

But together, you didn’t trust

Obsessed with the thought of

My breast caressed by another

 

Words, once graceful

Now slur with jealousy and deception

Lips, once angelic

Now kiss with demonic anticipation

 

Break the glass

Of your heart, tip toe

Darling, out the window

Security alarm, blast off

Broken heart, dies young

 

From the first hello

To the last goodbye

I will remain on your mind

 

And this I know of love

It brings life to the hopeless,

And it brings life to the child

Inside your stomach

And as well, it kills

Author's Note

J.A.N
basically,
this poem was centered around jealousy.
and the relationship between a young couple,
and thus, this boy prtrayed as the killer
believes he is not the father of the child.

Jealousy is a killer. A wonderful write about love. Sometimes we win sometimes we lose. Beautiful writing.

I enjoyed the imagery through out the entire poem, i also wanted to thank you for your kind words on my also.
This stanza is powerful and i think it the center of the entire piece, sort of ties in everything i feel.
