LOVERS
we were lovers from a key stroke
before knowing another way,
as if it were by match strike, melting
scrim of snow that fogged our days,
a single word, then another,
taking us where they'd descended,
discarded feathers touching down
where words sparked and darkness ended,
the vantage of a global span
doesn't save the fabric fraying,
showing through from years of wearing
of its nature, why it's tearing
aging long before we wouldn't,
old enough to know we shouldn't
be doing things to criticize,
encourage tempers on the rise,
times we'd slam a virtual door
and then forget what that was for,
and even tried to withhold sex,
now come on, really, while we'd text?
but now these days we are relieved,
and steadfast in what we believe
the two of us still live apart,
best of friends and from the heart.
and so it was, till there's no time,
when we met, stanza to a rhyme.

Heretic
he lays me down
leading me to ecstasy
his river, my delight
I praise him with singing lips,
so why does it always end in a fight?
I thought I was his honey & cream
filling him each morning with love
but compared to Him, I can't win.
he's convinced I'm his downfall,
a temptress clothed in snakeskin.
on sunday he feels ashamed
flinches when i help him shave
confesses our play had under the waxing moon
has been told to quit me not once, twice, but thrice
yet the twine i bind keeps us in a perpetual swoon

*Sorry. This is a depressing poem*
SHE
She was a girl who never loved
And knew how it felt to not love
But could tell you how the heart bends when it’s about to break
I asked her why she listened to so many love songs?
Why did she sing the words like she knew what it meant?
She shrugs and continued to sing the words in content
Even though she never felt love
She understood the stories the instruments told
Every note and lyric was a chapter and confirmation came from the speaker
She was a love seeker
She didn't know
But she wanted to know
And these love songs were as close to it as she would get
Because to her
She was unlovable
Untouchable
Something guys overlooked
Not even enough to be taken for granted
But she never thought look for love in other places
She wonders if she could do it
If she could go in the kitchen and slit her wrists
But she's scared
She thinks maybe I should hold out longer
Eventually someone’s going to come and sweep her off her feet
Right?
That’s how it works.
So she waits
But her patience is wearing thin.
So she's mad
She decides
Fuck It!
Look at Me!
I’m not something to look at!
I'm just a girl who dreams of imaginary love
She doesn't care anymore
She can't stand those sappy love songs anymore
She now loathes all those cliche love stories
All those stories and songs are bullshit
Now she's mean
She's the girl who goes around bursting love bubbles
Bringing everyone down
She's now brutally honest
Doesn't care who she hurts
Because whoever cared if they hurt her?
That's right
No one
But she's tired
She's tired of being alone
Listening to love songs
Waking up feeling misunderstood
She’s tired of life
Life no longer lifts her up nowadays
Problems constantly love on her shoulders
She’s tired
She's tired of dancing with depression
She’s tired
Lonely Unloved
And untouchable
She goes to the bridge
Tells God she’s sorry and leaves a note in her sneaker
Because she knows she’s going to hell for this
She knows they’re going to ask why?
But she doesn’t care
She always considers everyone else
Right now it’s just her
And fading love songs
She closes her eyes
Smiles with tears
And jumps
She hits the lake below her like sand bags
Hitting her head on a rock
She’s gone now
She read the note they found in her sneaker
She cries
Because the irony of it all hits her
She did because she felt unloved
She loved her though
More than she could ever known
She just never looked

A savage love
A beautiful disaster
Fire and ice
A mirror image in the dark
Lost in the exotic glow of midnight
Dancing around the flame of endless time we find solely within each other

me vs her
I'm infecting her pure soul
with my dark desires
as she pierced my evilness
to leak into the shadows
my heart weep to the thought
of she changing in to me
her seed growing in my heart
encouraged my soul to be strong
when she surprise me
with silly devilish acts
my wicked darkness screamed
with joy mocking my heart
and I see her eyes sparkled
when she see me with white capes
she want to light up my darkness
so my soul slowly exhale the dark
she slowly inhale the dark for me
as our love grew sacramentally

It took me a long time to decide... Thank you for all the great poems!
I chose the ones that were just inside to the theme of the comp., but really, I enjoyed all the poems!
Holly... I loved the whole of it! The end is just amazing... I couldn't stop reading it to all my friends! Loved the twist! Congratulations!
Oxy... Loved the idea of slow and fast thing!
Chump... This was a so true story and I think that many people will connect with your words.
Jen, I always love your work and you know it! I loved both of your poems! I read them again and again and I just loved them darling! Just needed to see differences that I could touch.
Jade... Just a beautiful poem... Something that could connect or separate two people... Loved the ending, very creative and inspirational poem. Again, needed to see differences that I could touch.
Placebo, Hailts, L_one... I want to welcome you to DUP! Great poems! Keep on! Just needed differences...
Vick... I struggled so much with your poem. I think I love all of it... It was an input/output poem which makes it so interior... I really think of it all day. I missed clear differences, but thank you so much for this poem!
Lobo... Great story! lol! Again, needed to see clear differences. Thank you for this experience!
Thank you all for widening my mind and thoughts!
Congratulations to all!
Kisses,
Art
