Fresh Blood
poetry/prose
SHOULD be
Love should be enough
A strong love
A stubborn love
That I was told could move mountains
No one told me of flaws
Of the pain that followed
Love should be enough
A beautiful love
A bonded love
Then why are families torn apart
Because of different blood
Because of bad blood
Love should be enough
A forever love
A fantastic love
That's what we say as the tears fall
Broken bones are said to heal
But what about our hearts
Love should be enough
A loyal love
A labored love
Said to heal any broken heart
But if love was there
Why was it broken
Love should be enough
A taboo love
A taken love
God help those who wait for love
They wait for a ghost
A dead love
A done love
A young loved
Gone
