Jeweled Compromised

In between wanting, needing

Lost vision with clarity

It was sold as a rare, jewel

Beautiful, rugged uncut

Yet arrived, mass produced

Barely unique

Beneath the desire of the buyer

Lived a need

To be more a woman

than emotion

physical, human

want to

sweat belief

need to

leave behind

tears of fear

I bleed

To be cultivated

instead of just planted

With a soil un rich

Unable to grow, bloom

so many times picked to soon

So close to the jewel, uncut, rugged and rare

you declared a heart bare

dressed like future

Smelled of  love

possibility

Breath, sweet sensual intensity

Losing invincibility

in our gaze

Did I wear it

On my sleeve

The need to be touched inside

Where my heart hides

Behind hands

artificial…

If heart beats are judicial…truths

Then kisses absent

Are signed eye witness testimony

Married to disrespect pain paid, alimony

 taught me to to not deceive

give no pain,  or negative to retrieve

no act of love should be spared

in the setting of me

the cut rare, the clarity

Sparkles my honesty

That view of me you saw

Did it wear my flaws

I hate the laws

By which connection is defined

A jewel refined, is not I

I am just as rugged, rare and uncut

Beneath the soil un rich

Did beauty arise

Didn’t see the touch,

brushes with skin

emotional, mental  surprised

all present, even physically

1st day, To not touch this way, not advised

Wrong connection compromised

Guess something as beautiful as you

Prefer the conventional

To the indefinable

Cut of jewel that rare in its depth, clarity and hue

 The enigma so charismatic,

a jewel of romance, now

a beautiful token

for a cherished memory
