Purple Lips Upon A Wedding Corpse

by xTheEcstasyOfSuicidex   Oct 18, 2006


Purple lips upon a wedding corpse,
Tears rush down a polished face,
The curse of love is ever near,
Elegance of trust, sweet as lace.

Leaning down with silver prayers,
Whispering of a fantasy lost,
Speaking to an admirer of affection,
Over our lips of purple, simply glossed.

A distorted love so precious, so valued,
Kissing remains to what wastes away,
A final look, falling swiftly apart,
Touch purple lips on a wedding day.

    Wow I really liked this one it kind of reminded me of a horror movie where the good guy/girl is about to kiss the one whos lips are made of poision because they are in a trance and think its the right thing to do when everyone else is screaming at them to back away. I really liked this poem, I think that you did a great job at capturing the emotions within it. What I really liked was how you made me feel intranced by the purple lips but also a little bit worried about what would happen. Nice job.

    That was really, really good.

    There's just two things that caught my eye:

    "A distorted love so pressious..."

    I'm presuming you meant "precious"?

    The very last line was good. I know you ended it that way for added effect, however it seems a little out of place, due to how long it is in comparison to the other lines.

    A good poem none the less.

    Gee willigers! That was amazing. I loved every bit of it. But in there, there was one line..

    "A distorted love so pressious, so valued,"

    Should it be "Precious" instead? That's what I thought, unless that is a new word for me lol. But, I loved this poem as well. Keep it up.

    5/5

    The first thing that caught my eye was the title, as others have said. It's eye-capturing. This poem is very well written. The vocab used throughout is excellent and created a descriptive piece. Great write. Keep it up. =] 5/5
