The Battle

He wielded his weapon

like a specialist

I responded with a stance of

a worthy opponent

But he played unfair,

He hid his best moves

while he pretended to dance

as my equal

Turbulent

Sweetness,

I miss you

more than words can say

the truth sits

upon my silent tongue

all throughout the day

shell

I will respond to you with smiles

focus on your words and offer up

everything I have to listen

Alien

Where do I fit you now?

Your words bent you 

into a shape

I do not recognize
