The taming of the shrew

by Goth marionette   Jun 17, 2006


Dark sight in my heart
I fell in the devil's art
my beliefs were captured
that I ever wanted to gird

I reined my bloody thoughts
in all the psychopathic roads
I amputated love and kindness
using the dirk of loneliness

I drew the flaws in my head
I pulled my emotions to be led
by the hidden intensify behind
the crimson tears that must mind

Rules of depression as blindfold
principles also should be untold
even holy words that I forgot
like if I had never seen or got

And in my thorny black blood
I was tainted with the mud
I bowed and drowned so deep
allowing my arteries to seep

I cannot find a right way
to let me get rid of that sway
I might lose the mercy of God
to tame me and be my guard

I submitted to Lucifer's will
my faint heart tasted hell
and the stirring cruelty of pain
I suffocated in the shrew as a vain

    I think we all fall at some point. Nice verbage and very descriptive.

    Good use of metaphors here. I can feel the lonliness and pain through your words.

    And in my thorny black blood
    I was tainted with the mud
    I bowed and drowned so deep
    allowing my arteries to seep

    Again, more great metaphors, I Love This

    This was absolutely breathtaking.
    I'm like addicted to your poems =)
    When I saw the title
    I wasn't really sure what to expect
    in of this poem
    but WOW!! I am so glad that I read this.
    I think this is 1 of the most powerful pieces I
    have read.
    I actually wanted to write something
    sort of with this idea
    but after reading this I don't think I could ever
    do such an outstanding job.
    Your words were like daggers.
    I dunno what else to say except this was amazing... it deserves way more than a 5!!!

    love
