    Poem Commentary

    I liked some of the lines in this poem.

    Love Like Salt

    "Too intricate to desipher."

    Music like loud thoughts,
    sometimes louder than the stomping of our feet.
    Kisses on the cheek,
    much warmer by my bedside.
    A smile like the sun,
    too bright for a dark heart.
    Flashlights in the windows ,
    secret messages with the switch.
    Fishnet begginings,
    but we patched up the holes.
    Loud vibrations in my mind,
    like a call I can't answer.
    Whispers around my lips,
    too soft to conprehend.
    Love like salt,
    sometimes sweet, sometimes bitter.

    this is real good. I mean that although I am confused I never remember salt being bitter. maybe it should have said sometimes sweet sometimes savory? but what do I know I am not the one who smashed the mirror.

    Poetry is when an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words.
