This is a poem I wrote years ago. I've changed a lot since then...
Black Sea
I'll put my heart
In a pretty black box
Seal it with a bitter kiss
And a silky black ribbon
Never to be opened again
Never to be broken to shame
Consumed by the dark
Let it blossom black roses
And rest in its holy grave
And rest in its holy grave
For those who walk over it
Shall shiver and be bruised
Then only will they leave it alone...
In the dark
My beautiful, little black heart
Looking back at this, I realised how terrified I was of LOVE, getting hurt, emotions and mostly the extent of having expansive emotions...for me at the time, it was to be as defencive, put up walls and destroy any form of feelings by constantly reaffirming the notion that I didn't need LOVE.
