Description
Why is it, my lady?that your eyes burn into my skin;
my dry skin tinder
for your fire
Your words create desolate imagery.
‘tis Flora shriveled
and carcass lying
on black embers.
“ ‘twas our differences setting us apart;
Your twisted mind flayed upon my innocence.
Your long black hair whipping across my tender face
akin to rose thorns clinging to flesh”
Why is it, my lady?
that you scowl at my presence;
planting a thousand terrors
deep within my chest.
Your expression tests my patience.
the heart-wrenching lines
curling across your otherwise
smooth, youthful features.
“ ‘twas our lifestyles setting us apart;
You as the denouncer of Love
and I as the angel.
I am light, you are darkness.”
Why is it, my lady?
that your tears are that of acid;
I wipe them from your face
and scream in agony.
Your crying breaks me down.
I hold my head
and wish for another
who can hold my fragile frame together
“ ‘twas our hearts setting us apart;
Your livelihood is your will for death
whilst mine for life.
Your soul is an anvil
tied to my feet,
pulling me to the depths of the ocean.
I feel your anguish clenching onto me
and I cannot survive under your grasp.”

When you read something and it entertains you it lives for a moment. When you read something and it moves you, it lives in your heart forever. This is one of those that will stay with me for a long time, not just because I care about you and it hits me on that other level, but because you're a great writer.
And now to give you a hug...

I like the way you set out the poem. Interesting, not really sure of the meaning (if there is one) behind it.
This is my favourite stanza:
"Why is it, my lady?
that your tears are that of acid;
I wipe them from your face
and scream in agony."

*tear* Evil in a way. The words used are very strong, so you very nicely present your poem like hmmm... how can I explain this. Like you are throwing daggers at a wall, showing the audience very powerfully love and pain. Beautifully presented... I guess the easier thing to say is you got your point across nicely.
Youve done amasingly Juddy. Glad to see a poem from you once again.
