Loveless Love Poem by John Sensele

Love, you hover over my heart
Tearing it to smithereens
Assailing my art, my quart in each part of my rampart
Love, spank your sins, spins, skins and dustbins.

Love, you prolong my pain
Propagating dirt and hurt
Peeling of the my peace of mind, teasing the terrain of my strain
Love, save my soul from your sullied skirt.

Love, you choke my chest
Chiding my choice of chalice
Killing off calibers of my conquering quest
Love, meander my mind away from the lice in your malice.

Love, you steal my soul
Searing every sachet of savvy sense and dainty deference
Drilling in my delicate heart a hostile hole
Love, nullify from my life your nonsense and neutralize your nuisance.

Love, you precipitate my poverty
Paint pangs of palpitations
Reciting your nonsense novelty
Love, lift from my life your affections and pretensions.

Love, you smell saffron
Seeking to sap my sentiments
Sweeping away from me rays of radon and reason
Love, cut away your corny comments.

Love, you soak my season
Hugging my in a sea of sorrow
Pouring on me pain, paneling me in your prison
Stealing my tranquil tomorrow.

Love, you wield worries
Sacking sleep, seeping through my pores
Deleting data, driving drivel in my diaries
Love, strike it off your soles and reap off your roars.
