Under Your Spell
I should be mad at you
spitting fire and hell fury
but I'm mad at me
falling/failing
to see
the same old thing
a passer of time tripped
tight lipped;
as kindness skipped,
across your waters
~
while you were holding me
under__
your spell
again here I am
ready to cut ties
and run,
burnt by the sun
as you ripped off my sleeve
a forty night thief
where the jewels
lost their luster
and left me
a fool

I can so relate to that last stanza. That ol' sun is brutal. I'll take the moon and her subtle kiss.

Great flow as I read this aloud! As for content... I can relate; how we can feel captured by the comforts we settle for, angered at the lessons we fail to learn.
Carry on fellow poet, excellent expression here. Release it =)
