You travel miles
Staggered walk
Slurred speech
Soaked shirt
Knock on love's door
Impatiently
Waiting for an answer
As to why
Hate penetrated your heart
Your favorite shirt, that love had purchased
Now, blood stained
By the fatal wounds hate infiltrated
You tapped on love's window pane
Because in church the pastor preached
that love supersedes hate
So you wait
For protection
For a solution
Free your mind from the dust and soot of hate's pollution
Maybe love can talk to that man in the black cloak
Who ravished your heart
Bleeding out
You hear the soft footsteps of love easing to the door to satisfy your query
Because we all know that love would be accepting
And free of judgment
He opens the door
Gazes into your eyes
And just in that moment
Your brow raised north,eyes blinked twenty times
When you realize
That it was actually
Love
Who caused you all of this pain...
