Your Forked Tounge

Melissa Q
Like a serpent from below you slithered your way into our lives.
You poisoned a family with your forked tongue full of lies.

When you tore this family it apart you just sat back and watched
You must have laughed aloud while it all fell apart.

One thing you did not expect to rise from the ashes
was the love of two brothers whose bond can never be damaged.

The lives they both lead the lives they both created can not be and will never be by you, contaminated.
So take your score and slither with her, back to your hole.

The only ones who will hurt now will be your own tormented souls.

    Your poem shows true emotion. I like the picture of Medusa. It really compliments your piece:)
