CRY FOR LOVE

I wrote this for a dear friend who has been hurting as a result of his loved ones' abject insensitivity to his needs....my fellow sentient...the healing starts now

....................................................

I call

for your love

in need

indeed

your attention I crave

connection

erase

the errors of time

this world I entered

innocent

childlike

void of hate

unsophisticated

naïve

searching for guidance

mama’s love

papa’s stare

steer me away

to hurt

who

wish to hurt

me

malignant affectations

tumorous attentions

mirrored reflections

of you

starved of warmth

family fare

nourished with cold

to be quenched

by young ones clinging

bonding

spinning tops

boats, planes

laughter plays games

temporarily wanes

emptiness

disdain

passion

for thirst

remains
