Deadly Caress

By forgottentreasure

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

scratching, clawing... splitting the nail, detaching my soul to hear your voice bear your tears keep away my heart, my love table-top rose withers with time's progression your love, my fear, grow only stronger... bitter taste remains untouched unseen left scarred and bleeding hope to soothe the wounds words? -laughter burbles within my mind- simple syllables slit my wrists, tore out any will to live...carry on detaching smiles by combining letters as you sat alone, confiding only in your depression pushing away my love for you an explosion so sudden, inexplicable emancipating my heart barbed-wired binds of 'true love' leaving traces today... times we've shared, memories engraved yet the tears no longer mine, burning me with your acid self loathing pity your loss, burn your bridges tables turned, i cannot fathom react with calculated love unrehearsed hatred bleeding, my fingertips swollen and bruised as i slightly caress your curving shoulder i feel rotted flesh melting corrosive -your tears- as they slowly fall, searing every surface absorbing through the surface, torched -my soul- given up on happiness forgotten about potential forever 'love me', you beg -the tears, they scream to be rubbed away as to stop deforming your beautiful facade- i cannot, no longer, nevermore for all is lost hiding in the underbrush the everglades? ...wherever... far from you your soul, darkness I’ve found the light my happiness, beacon i had dreamed of.. grasped finally, and im holding on tight the path my journey any future i may have a new emotion -filling the void you left- leads to wondering perhaps i dont need you your love fear charismatic way of hiding your evil 'love me',  you cry on your knees, hands outstretched yet I’ve learned to push back turn away your hungry hands, for once keeping my love to myself sharing no longer with you cannot love you anymore... for hatred breathes more comfortably in your wake and my fingers, they are slowly beginning to heal Written September 27th, 2001 © on Nov 25 2001 05:00 AM PST, Nichole   18 • 0 • 1
