Utopian Abstract Forgetful Love

"They say not to look at the reflection of love when you leave"

They say don't forget your jewels

when they take me;

And she with a withering look,

smiles but a tear seem to flow.

-

They say not to look at the reflection of love

when you leave;

And he smiles away with a dirty photograph

in his pocket, that smells.

-

She knows what they say; but still,

in profound anguish, she welcomes the milkman.

They say don't forget your jewels

when they take me enclosed in that utopian photograph.

I wrote this poem in the early 2000s. I had to change the title, but it still works. I also want to thank you for reading my piece, and I hope you liked it. Do not be shy and come back for more!
