A Change Of Mind Poem by Lora Colon
A Change Of Mind
What joy when my heart took its virgin flight!
It soared with stars navigating the night;
Pledges of love were uttered with each breath,
Not once did I entertain thoughts of death
At last my lonely heart had been caressed
By love, and drawn tenderly to its breast!
Nothing could keep my spirit from flying,
Not once did I harbor thoughts of dying
The flame of love burned with a steady glow,
It seemed love's fountain would forever flow;
When love surrenders in totality,
What fear has the heart of mortality?
But O! how my world changed -now I'm alone,
The fountain's gone dry, my heart's turned to stone;
Every day despair rears its ugly head,
What irony........ how I wish I were dead!

(cont.) 2 - I turned on the TV; you turned it off. I got cards out; you did scoff. I fought, my virginity to keep, but you tugged till my drawers came off. (cont.)
1 - Rats! no typos etc. to complain about here (or in other two newest-submitted poems) . What joy, that night when my virginity took flight! We cavorted** and snorted all through the night. Your mouth sucked my flesh, leaving a 'passion bite', and dear Mom was aghast when she discovered the site. I was 22 years old, pretty old indeed for an American virgin. I might be one still if it hadn't been for your yearning urgin'. (cont.)

to lose this kind of feeling is, as you describe, lora, a come down. but then there is the love that gives even when it's not deserved, the kind of love implicit in a saying that was popular on bumper stickers some years back—practice random acts of kindness and senseless acts of beauty. -glen
