Not What It Seemed

The sweetest words

He conveyed to her heart

Surety

He placed in her soul

Hope

He gave to her future

Ease

perpetuated her mind

Convinced

he was it

The dream

a walking breeze

calming all mental

soothing all physical

a feed for the emotional

High display of spiritual

Touching levels of physicality

unpenetrated

Yes!

My brother

You da best!

Well he “was”

the best

sugared illusion

with a cause

thick fog

hiding all flaws

masking his lack of faith

like a protection from SARS

using the good

to fill his horribles

greed

spite

intentions implorable

But damn

the sister said

he was adorable

S.M.H.

brother was the definition

of fake

There she fell

into the deepest

blue lake

to cleanse the pain

her soul could not longer take

But just before

the darkness consumed her conscious

she remembered her purpose

and pleaded for solace
