My Name : Love

written by Poet : EC


A sound like a snake hiss?
How strange to witness
my name transformed into a warning
" ...come near and feel my venom
step on me and feel my teeth ..."
that's what you said in my name
I didn't either hiss nor speak
instead I listened and now I heard
yes, I heard your anger and your fear
what I didn't hear was that sweeter tone
that vibrant, ever-lasting word: Love
