Eli J Tod Poems

**LoVe**

Is blind They say
...

The word

“Love”
...

Dress up, dolls,
A fake string of pearls,
My mother you have always
Made up my world.
...

I can’t stop smiling
When I’m with you
I can’t stop staring
When I’m with you
...

Rugged, cold
Impersonal
Roars to life
At a touch.
...

Stop the clock
Just grab the minute
Make your world rock
Just be right in it
...

Take
These Broken Wings
The World
set upon the flutter
...

The heart that should have shattered
I cannot seem to find
The words I had rehearsed
Keep flowing through my mind
...

I have to stop thinking
How perfectly I fit with you
I need to focus on breathing
Now that you have found someone new
...

What’s spinning in my head
Is destined to stay
Lest it pass my lips
And the world comes crashing down.
...
