Want-full soul

Life of love and lust -
 Wanting needing feeling ,You know
The one that never leaves ,The one that runs so deep -
Rushing through my body , Pumping through my blood - the
Want  I want - want ..or should I say need cause with out it I can't
Breath ...suffocating ever so deep I Need air I Need air ! I want -
I need you
I want to be wanted
The want...I want - want !

Talking

When you ask her to talk,
She talks --
About her dreams and fears,
Her feelings of herself,
Her lack of self-fulfilment,
Her friendships and her friends,
Her sense of being she.

When you ask him to talk,
He says --
'What about?'

Suicidal Love


My bones moan with your sorrow,
black and white shivers in moonlight
as you scrape melancholy melodies
across ribs which encase grey heart of night.
Your fingers draw blood from hope
with depression's desperate, fatal strokes.
Spiritual whispers of precious dreams choked
by the strangling stronghold of stormy reality
echo out the final groaning beg to make it all go away.

To feel your love--- when I can never have it--- is suicide.

Awesome Night

One joint
Two girls
Threesome
Four in the morning
Five orgasms
Six noise complaints
Seven hickeys on my neck
Eight scratches on my back
Nine times out of
Ten this would never happen to me; but this was an exception...

Hi..
hey dear!
how are you?
I'm doing pretty fine.
Woah! that's really cool, huh.
Yeah, I thought you left town?
No; I never did, I've been around.
Though in an enclosed town called DUP town.
What's the meaning of DUP town? help me understand.
DUP means Deep Underground Poetry, a great website for writers.

Story of My Life
My heart lives in pain and fear
My Mind lives in mental abuse
My body lives in physical abuse
My heart is torn
My head and body ache
My eyes and ears sees and hears it all happening
I just stay there and let it all happen
Because NO ONE cares enough to do anything to help me

Fired up inside
Until I have your life
You're always by my side
Until the end of time
Won't stop until you're mine
your heart is just so kind
It takes me back in time
Just to a place so fine
I need you to be mine
But not for just one time

I can no longer compete,
My flesh is glass and still;
I thought I could complete,
But Time was already built.

All those past deeds and sayings,
They're no longer there to step to;
Everyone lost to their own frayings,
It's just another of my turns through.

Somewhere it is without consequence,
A strength to allow re-innocence.

He thought he would win, a sadistic smile on his charming face
Hands around my throat , so strong and masculine
but alas i am no normal girl
our wills may fight
an animalistic need to win
For we both are Dominate Sin
Breathe slow refusing to give in
a reddish hue across my face
but of course
he will end up laying on the floor begging me to touch more

Skin


Led me in with an enticing grin
The way you smelt
It was a sin
Ooh, I can just imagine
How you'd taste
To my tongue
I do believe that I am in love
How silly of me
To rush the instant gratification
Of eating your skin

MASK

contented mask
inner turmoil
calm centre
contradictions
story of my life
listen, watch
more cracks appearing
look closer
see my handy work
I'm glued together by positive thoughts
