Wednesday (Poetry)

THE LOVE SHE SEEKS

I know it's dusk but from here, I won't leave!

I see the sun set and along, I fiddle the reef

My teary eyes, Smoochie watch with gloom

For all I see, a threat to my bloom

The maid she hired owns a first degree in witchcraft 

Yet she struts and claims a craft 

At sparrow-fart, mother egresses from home 

And when it's thick darkness, she scolds
me not to roam 

Her presence, a crime to behold 

And dad's travelling business; to him, a load

The pain etched up in my heart, they see not

And my tears are like spilled milk with I, left with my lot

I'll stay here and watch the trees wriggle! 

My pains Smoochie understands but it's a muggle

All day, it meows silently and rattles not

Yet in my heart, a wish to bare my wounds open to them so I don't rot!
