a love that's true
you have to earn
I don't need fear
and I don't need tears
All I ever wanted
was your love and affection.
All I ever got was lots of lies & deception
to you it's all a game
for causing all my misery
it's you I blame
From the bottom of my broken heart
I bid you goodbye
When all you ever did
was make me wanna cry
When you look into my eyes
there is misery I can't disguise
And you are the reason why
the way you're treating me
just makes me wanna cry
and curl up and die

Snacktime Sonata Challenge Winners
Well, your Snacktime Sonatas made us hungry, and that’s about the highest compliment we have. Food — taste, smell, sensation — is a powerful conduit to the past, to memories pleasurable and painful and sometimes bittersweet, a mixture of comfort and challenge. Congratulations to Penny Fuller for Sativa — it’s a first win for Penny — a hymn to the “secret, unbounded/freedoms” of fresh peas in the pod. The narrative voice of the poem doesn’t really want to be outside, but finds joy in the green things of the earth; this is a lovely work of resilience.
