Corruption Never Tasted Sweeter

by Jenni Marie   Dec 18, 2007


Lying here in bed, entwined securely in his embrace
Yet it doesn't stop your face from dancing through my mind
Imagining it's you lying by my side, bittersweet smile appears
How can you make me so euphoric and sad simultaneously?

There'll be no sleep tonight, tomorrow or the day after
For all I can think about is you, you're always in my thoughts
Who gave you permission to invade my life so thoroughly?
It's become impossible to take my mind of your beautiful face

Thoughts of you overwhelming, heartbeat becoming faster
Slowly loosening from his embrace, careful not to wake him
Slipping on the flattering clothes, carefully applying makeup
One last quick glance at him, before I'm out of the door

And as you run to meet me under the stars, fall into your arms
Trembling with ecstasy as you trail kisses across my face
Moonbeams beaming down on us, creating a sparkling glow
Shivering not from cold, but from complete delight and joy

As layers of clothes begin to fall away in our urgent grasp
His trusting eyes suddenly flash wildly into my head
Shaking the picture away, clinging to you desperately
As we celebrate our love under the dazzling night sky

Kissing you softly on the lips, whispering see you soon
Forced once again to desert our wild, passionate love
Climbing back into bed, realizing that I've become corrupted
But honey...corruption has never tasted so sweet.

    I love it... It is filled with excellently expressed emotions and passion that runs wildly through the last few stanzas. Truly great write, very captivating, with good flow. I like your choice of words and descriptions from the beginning to the end, and I could feel everything you wrote about.
    My favorite stanza is:

    -And as you run to meet me under the stars, fall into your arms
    Trembling with ecstasy as you trail kisses across my face
    Moonbeams beaming down on us, creating a sparkling glow
    Shivering not from cold, but from complete delight and joy-

    Very vivid, passionate and beautiful.

    Loved it! Loved it! Loved it! It was exactly how I feel right now sort of or how I felt a couple days ago. I love how all of your poems I have read so far relate to me in some way I think that's just the coolest thing. I loved your vocabulary, it wasn't too much or too little it was just perfect so great job. I can honestly say that I liked the whole thing not one flaw in my opinion. Wonderful!
    5/5
