poetry by j matthew waters

what do you do with your love


how long have you suffered
how long have you lived the dream
the two going hand in hand
how can they ever be separated

you walk a mile in your own shoes
you walk a mile in someone else’s
distinguishing between the two
an impossible proposition

when the heart becomes swollen
when the heart becomes weak
what do you do with your love
before it all goes away





august two thousand twenty-three
