My Saudade
the pendulum swings
the metronome moves
my heart bleeds for you
my anarchist artist
missing us, and
all what once was
passion destruction
maybe just an illusion
yearning for intimacy
i suppress my urge
preventing myself
from calling you
when solitude
submerges
me and
nothing
matters
anymore
for you, my love
you stripped me bare
and forced me to wear
nothing but vulnerability
for you and only you
i got down on all fours
while I begged for more
the pendulum swings
the metronome moves
my heart bleeds for you
my master, my rebel
my hell, my heaven
my de Sade
my Saudade
Signed, your elf ♡

Your conflict–the yearning and gathering strength to resist–really comes through in this piece. It's so difficult to break free of something, someone we want that is more harm than good when the good feels so. damn. good. No idea what the words of the song are, but the feeling of it is a strong accompaniment.
Thank you so much mariekeys for seeing the conflict... my conflict...

Ahh, the song... the emotions it evoked without knowing what she's singing about, started this poem!
I looked up the translation after finishing the poem and it was spot on!
The title I already knew: My Diabolical Angel
I appreciate your comments so much :-)

There is nothing quite like this feeling. That consumption that you hate to love.
The forbidden and toxic is the very thing that brings forth such a euphoria that we only know to crave more.
You captured every portion of this perfectly.
Brilliant ink 💓

Thank you so much lovely Heart!
Well... it took me a very long time to be able to write this poem!
It's not easy to capture such complex and contradictory feelings in one poem,
so I'm grateful to hear you think I did this perfectly :-)

Thank you so much, dear Crim!
I think many of us know this all consuming passion!
It's easy to get lost and hard to break free...
Love, Duende

"........sometimes words flow like blood upon my skin
warm and red resurrecting your spirit inside my soul
I feel it's melancholy angst and pain
For you, I cry tears in the rain, Musically Mr M "

a beautiful treatment of the feeling of melancholy found in longing for something not good for us but oh how good it is to us. ("Evil is my angel too....") Thank you for this beautifully dark poem this rainy Carolina day.
"I cut myself today to see if I can feel- I focus on the pain, the only thing that's real".....Trent Reznor

Thank you so much for your deeply moving comment!
I feel it's melancholy angst and pain
For you, I cry tears in the rain > that made me tear up again...
I'm grateful you picked up the Saudade in this poem, a feeling that is as important as Duende!
Duende and Saudade > Flamenco and Fado > passion and pain > both part of me...
Ahh, the quote... I'm starting to believe there is something like emotional masochism as well, I think my next poem will reveal a bit more (resurrection being a main theme)

Thank you so much, Kasai!
There's a thin line between passion and destruction (or pain)
I'm grateful you could feel the intense emotions which I tried to describe!

It's like everything in life...a dark, a light, a wrong, a right... That beautiful ecstasy, that horrendous pain... Yea yea I felt this this so deeply my beauty...
22nd Sep 2016 5:24pm
Thank you so much, sweet Poet!
You are right, though I would like to scip the horrendous pain... just a bit of bittersweet if that's not too much to ask ;-)
