Arousing Without Compassion For Life.

by Teria   May 14, 2008


Your daze causes awkwardness,
and your mental capacity is lowered,
to the standards of a twelve year old,
with a mind of lust and impending sex -
that shall never be forgotten,
considering it's but a fantasy.

Your perspective deserves my own self pity,
arousing without compassion for life.
as forbidden fruits that never veer
stare straight ahead into your lonesome heart,
awaiting you to make a move
just to receive rejection...

Your need for pain, yet not self inflicted
has caused me much confusion.
I'm standing alone in need of the answers,
that I know you'll never give to me.
But, it makes you that much stronger
since it makes you feel alive.

    ^^ Sadly so, some people feel the need to have control over the other by depriving them of an insight in their feelings....

    Great poem:)

    Take care,

    Wonderfully written, with a great flow..I tend to use dashes too, but it didn't seem like it took away from the flow or caused any awkward stops for the reader.. so I thought that was fine to put in there.. Umm, greatly written.. I see no flaws to be honest with you.. I liked how the title was used in the poem, it fit perfectly.. annd lastly, if I had to pick a favorite stanza it'd have to be the last one, it was simple and to the point and tied it all up very nicely.

    5/5.

  • Excellent!Simply brilliant!Word choice was perfect.Flow was great.Very good.5/5
