Love withers… <br />It droops <br />from the frail limb of life <br />it sags like a centenarian’s skin <br />and sores as an old lesion <br />mocks at you drives you insane <br />stabs hard, then leaves in pain <br />and drowns like was never there <br />entangles you in an unseen snare <br />then fades out with the gust of time <br />gets brushed from the memory's rhyme <br /> <br />Love slithers down as an escort’s gown <br /> <br />n dies ….! <br /> <br />2 Jan 09'<br /><br />irum inayat<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/love-withers/
