The Grass is always greener Date: Tuesday, 2nd August 2005 @ 02:26:07 AM AEST Topic: Sad Poetry Contributed By: taurusgem1 Idealistic remedies to your wounded heart All prepared as you fidget in your dimly lit kitchen The warm liquid of Grandma’s chicken soup does not soothe; Instead its heat stings Blistering, a red sore onto your hopeful comfort Mastering the illusion of happiness Harem like, behind dark veils of a concubine’s heartache You fight subconsciously to be his chosen one, yet His mistress is unbeatable His mistress, an unattainable mirror image Only lets him see the sun highlighting the grass’s greener side As its blades gently move with the wind of obsession They reflect a hypnotic need for a superior life Never showing the worms beneath the surface This poem is Copyright © taurusgem1 Important note: ALL POETRY ON THIS SITE IS COPYRIGHT.
