Scorpion

by Maple Tree   Nov 7, 2012


I felt the sting
of a whipping tail,
paralyzed,
the hush of
a thousand
angels sang.

He levitated me
to the moon
and stars,
for out of
the dark
I became
his shadow.

We spiral
danced
as
one,
united
tear drop.

Out of death
birthed a love
from a
scorpions
kiss....

    It amazes me how long a poem can seem when reading, which to me brings the beauty, but how very little words you actually use here that describe this love, still bright just as much beauty as a longer piece....your writing always says the exact thing you want to say with the right amount of words....so touching...so beautiful <3

    This was really beautiful, yet sad at the same time...
    It was creative and unique and it flowed really well. There is something about the essence of being stung that really stood out to me...it was just awesome.

    If I could give a better comment, I would...just unable to at the moment.
