Ruled By Secrecy

by xToBeWithYoux   Oct 30, 2008


Unwanted rulers control my world,
you may think you have the same problem.

You don't know the half of it.

The sole ruler, the ruler of all rulers,
does not exist in a form or a being.
It is just there, controlling our lives.

Controlling my love for you.

I cannot love you, but these feelings are too strong.
If fate had won over me,
you would be a drained corpse.

I cannot tell you why, how, where or when,
but I can tell you that it hurts to remember
the dark times when I hated you.

I can tell you one more thing,
that is to run.
Run as far away as you can from me,
if you scream that would help, too.

I love you enough to let you go,
for your own safety.
Falling in love with a monster like me
doesn't have very good life prospects.

Already, I have told you too much.
My family is ruled by secrecy,
the sole ruler of rulers,
but you don't have to be.

Unless...

    Very interesting.

    I like how open you left the poem for readers to interpret the meaning; if your dark and unsettling, scared you may hurt someone, or just dont want to get hurt yourself.

    I am not a big fan of free verse, but it really worked here. It seemed to me that your mind just spat out lines and warning; no specific direction or flow, just random thoughts that came up.

    Hmm .. I perticularily like this one mostly because it reminds me of Edward Cullen from the twilight saga : ) . Haha i don't know if that's what you were going for , but honestly .. It's crazy . If you've never read the series , then you just wrote a poem reflecting an idea that has made millions . Very well written , lots of dark emotion . 5/5
