160, one shoot..and poetry Potluck

Come
Be with me
For an eternity...

Let us not be
Murdered
By reality...

whisper
- tenderly - into my soul
your entry...

Come smile - open your eyes
As you slay
Me gently...

  2. No one slays, even metaphorically, with their eyes closed. Slaying someone always is with intent Darlin' never by accident.

    j you do have great talent at provoking a "from the gut" response or feeling with your short line free verse and I love it.

  10. Generally people slay with an open eyes. We know everything but still we do what causes pain.
