Shaivi Know It All Poems

I've been growing up behind you,
In the shadow of your flame.

While your flame glows warm and bright,
...

Caws and calls of the birds outside
Trees under which predators lie
Bushes behind which their prey will hide
The flutter of the wings of a butterfly
...

Froth turns the water white
Turning, churning in unrest.
The dam's been shattered
Water did what id does best.
...

Bullet through a broken heart,
tears slip down his face

Betrayal as a form of art,
...

Standing still in a silent world
Tears down the cheeks of a crying girl
Fix what is broken and sew whats torn
Pull it together and make it whole
...

We are a sculpture falling apart,
once used to be a work of art.

Gold and bronze is peeling away,
...
