Bury My Heart Poem by Averie Richardson

Bury My Heart



What is love
Other than pain

Pain in mind
In body
In spirit

Pain in stomach
Heart
And Eyes

For too many times,
have I cried over love

The love that doesn't exist

The love that threatens me

Pain is what I crave
For love is my only want

If aching is all it takes
Let me rot in a field of flowers

For flowers are the fruit of love
