Kim V. Poetry

A dash of danger.
A pinch recklessness.
There is something brewing
Underneath her waves.

Quiet solitude on the surface, yes.
But chaos and fire breathing deep,
Deeper than the tumultuous sea,
Under her smile.

She is a timeless muse.
A rose garden of jewel delights.

A masterpiece,
Painted by careful brushstrokes
Of a loving hand.

There are no empty words
When she speaks.
They carry meaning and purpose.

They carry comfort
From the blurred truths
And unnecessary lies
You tell yourself.

And you love her.
Jagged edges and all.

For she is a banquet
Of beauty and pain.

Purple gemstones
And salty sadness.

She is a goddess
Blessed by Aphrodite’s kiss.

And you fall to your feet
When you see her.
