Loves Fortress

by Spoken Silence   Sep 18, 2005


I am a prisoner of you
My heart is shackled to your soul,
A slave of your darkness
An insanity has consumed me thats incurable
Brought on by the curse of love
As i try to reach out to you, you recoil into the blackness of your soul
You're consumed in yourself
A consumption thats created a barrier of lies that can be pierced by no one
I am chained to the walls of your fortress trying to break them down but failing once again
I try hoping my love could save you from yourself
But the unrequited nature weakens me to nothing
Causing my love to have no power
So i stand confined to your emptiness,
Defenseless against the evils of being alone
Though i know in the end my attempts will be worthless
You'll always remain in your self mended cage
I still try
And with my failed trials i don't love you any less
I just fall for you deeper
Love was my savior
I just hope one day you'll find redemption
In love with me

    Wow. I really like this poem. My favorite lines are:
    "You're consumed in yourself
    A consumption thats created a barrier of lies that can be pierced by no one"
    These lines spoke to me because of an old relationship. Excelent poem. 5/5

    Ohh...I can relate...this piece is really meaningful and deep...

    I'm going to go accept your application to the Unrequited Poets club...hope to see you there...we haven't had many active members...and if you want, you can PM or IM me. Otherwise, I'll hopefully talk to you on the club's discussion boards. Oh, and thanks for taking the time and writing an application, some people say nothing...you were even polite :)

    Take care, dear.
