Dark Letters
I am tormented and weakened
crushed by a stampede of emotions
that have run amock in the
wilderness of my mind
I hold within these breaths a kiss
which was bestowed upon me
a few nights ago
a kiss only heard of in fairytales
and for this I am tormented
which causes my heart to turn
to stone
I beseech thee oh perils of love
Why does thou toy with ones

Definitely a lot of emotions at play, here. Well worded, but not too wordy. I love it!

I have to agree with the others, incredibly emotional write, short, to the point.
Brilliance.
nice write!

Tight yet powerful writing. The tease of the last three lines invites re-reading and then finding more in the poem. Clever.
