Kim is hosting Poetics in the dVerse Poets Pub * "When Love disappears .. Where does it go?" is the burning question * and the inspiration for our poems.
love is a dramatic little creature
it slips out my front door
dragging a suitcase full of sighs
lurks in the sleeve of an old sweater
waiting for a cold enough morning
to wrap myself in memories
I swore I'd thrown away
love enjoys small disguises
that song I almost skipped
the smell of rain on a day I needed mercy
on ambitious days love hides in my future
between plans I haven't yet made
when it's feeling particularly brazen
love might even hide in plain sight
so no, love hasn't left
it's hiding inside the word "again"
..... waiting, simply waiting
