Jealousy

Jealousy

A Poem by Butch Decatoria

there's a black door between us,

and neither thinks to knock

jazz horns replace our screams

attempting to be heard,

to unlock our hot ice dreams

 

there's a black door between us

communication is inhibited

can't see each other in each other's eyes

or touch with frequent visits

find your solidity at sun's rise

 

but the black door between us

is like a blind mirror reflecting our trust

we stare through to find the night

without a hint of color or light...

neither think to unlock

 

the gigantic black door between them

hindering sight of one another's wishes

makes each of them wonder

paranoia at the noise of breaking dishes

footsteps on the wooden floor like thunder

scenarios of an orgy in Realtime (Player)

 

there's a thick black door between us,

and i must admit, i was scared to lose you

went out of my way to keep this

in check and on lock

doomed-to-fail-relationship

neither think to knock...

Absolutely heart wrenching and wow ..just wow. Very colorful description! I know things happen like that and I've been there done that kind of thing. Were we don't steam to speak, Our eyes are blind and our ears are filled with water! This is very good piece!!

there's a thick black door between us,
and i must admit, i was scared to lose you

in check and on lock
doomed-to-fail-relationship
neither think to knock...

Very good ending. I don't think it could get better then that!!
Great poem!

Much love n respect,
