Misjudged

~ JezzieG

Misjudged
Form: Haiku Sonnet

the judgement of love
devouring trust in its wake
I am not safe here
the glance of his eyes
piercing, stinging like the bees
on a summer’s day
vacated feelings
yield to the descending pain
thoughts suffer in fear
invaded flesh rots
a carcass in the gutter
at least I am free
for echoes of love bring hope
while the nightingale still sings

I am a freelance writer and poet and started writing after raising my two boys as a way of discovering just who Jez is. That is still very much an ongoing project but the journey so far has introduced me to many wonderful friends and fellow writers through an ever-growing love of poetry.
