Love Is A Predator Poem by Barry Middleton

Love Is A Predator



love is a predator
that stalks my lost desire
a ghostly god of night
a murderer and liar

it crushes like a vice
a ponderous heavy stone
that I must cast aside
to face the dark alone

and in the end it kills
a bloody claw concealed
that I cannot defeat
and yet I fail to yield

love is a predator
it stalks my hiding place
a tiger's kiss of death
a shroud of silk and lace
