Only After
One quiet liar to another,
slip of our red hot tongues
sharp like thistles
In the deep recesses of our
mind we're seamless, moving
in slow motion
Thorny twigs prick the inside
of our loneliness, letting our
sweet scents flow
Only after do we become frail,
we begin to wilt, twisted and
entwined
slip of our red hot tongues
sharp like thistles
In the deep recesses of our
mind we're seamless, moving
in slow motion
Thorny twigs prick the inside
of our loneliness, letting our
sweet scents flow
Only after do we become frail,
we begin to wilt, twisted and
entwined

I enjoyed the way you wrote this poem:
---------------------------------------
One quiet liar to another,
slip of our red hot tongues
sharp like thistles
---------------------------------------
above was wonderful
-------------------------------------------
Thorny twigs prick the inside
of our loneliness, letting our
sweet scents flow
-------------------------------------------
Masterful use of words, language
Demonstrates wonderful wordcrafting
Well penned

Ahh, the things we do to allow
ourselves to feel alive.
"Thorny twigs prick the inside
of our loneliness, letting our
sweet scents flow"
Nice intimate inflection, Tommie... Pan

Tommie, this is such a well developed piece. Bravisima Poeta! ;) What I like about it is it causes the reader to apply the words to their own experience making it personal for all who read it. I love this stanza especially:
"Thorny twigs prick the inside
of our loneliness, letting our
sweet scents flow"
And you used my favorite word..."entwined" ;)
Thank you!
