The Soul Collector
She saw beauty in him
like no one had before
Recognising him broken
Beneath cold exterior
his soul lay raw
Trying to heal him
Laying herself bare
to his cold icy stare
Leaving herself vulnerable
was all she knew
Lost in darkness
now she's broken too
Unselfish she was
the risk she had took
He doesn't want broken
fact he couldn't give a fuck
Again the dices roll
creeps him to his next victim
Claims another beautiful soul
but of course she still loves him
like no one had before
Recognising him broken
Beneath cold exterior
his soul lay raw
Trying to heal him
Laying herself bare
to his cold icy stare
Leaving herself vulnerable
was all she knew
Lost in darkness
now she's broken too
Unselfish she was
the risk she had took
He doesn't want broken
fact he couldn't give a fuck
Again the dices roll
creeps him to his next victim
Claims another beautiful soul
but of course she still loves him

Falling in love is so dangerous! Especially, when there's no proper school/class for it. But, the lessons love and heartbreak teach us, infinitely precious.

It's true, in one way, shape, or form love is my primary inspiration for writing.

This hit home...
Leaving herself vulnerable
Was all she knew
Lost in darkness
Now she's broken too > these lines are painfully beautiful... I know understand even better why you like Orchid!
I don't have more words other then: it's great to have a poetess like you on this site!

To speak the often unspoken thought and be brave enough to expose your soul is a wonderful gift.

Thank you, glad you stopped by for a read :) this is why I love this site...I can be me 'me' with nobody judging the other 'me' This made sense in my head haha 💜

That was.. powerful. Love can be such a beautifully tragic mistake sometimes.

I have always liked emotional directness in poetry. You have it a lot. Try to detach and combine the feeling which prompts you to write.
At the Primal Stage
First there was her,
The thudding of her blood.
He heard it
But does not remember.
A summons
Prodding him
Ever incisive
To make the passage
From there to here.
Then the passage itself
And the cord tight
The head swollen
The pincer thighs
Willing to crush
The monstrous thing.
After a day and a night
The host swooned
Then woke to hard loathing.
The thing squealed
A raging need.
Hunger for life.
So much for love
At the primal stage.
