Fighting for a Goddess
you found me shattered and alone
so much hope you give to me
take my life and take my soul
I don’t need them when they’re broke
heal me with those words you speak
you’re no demon, a god damn angel
ah body of a goddess and the mind of the world
everyone wants you
but I’m just a mortal man
I have nothing to give
only my heart
maybe with a hug I can win you over
or just a kiss to show I care
feeling like I’m looking desperate
a damn fool in front of a flawless being
you cry to me one day
“what’s wrong?”
-“I hate my life”
how can this be?
what I see as perfect
is garbage to you
my heartaches
but I can’t stop the fight
must show you
that you are so much more
going to the farthest lands
picking the rarest of flowers
sharing the most beautiful songs
flirting to warm up your core
your laughter makes me smile
how can someone so perfect want me?
how is it you don't want yourself?
I will devote my life to healing your mind
even when it destroys this mortal man
Author’s note: I don’t think I’ll be on this site as much.
Life is a bit crazy at the moment.
Not sure what I’ll do from here when it comes to poetry,
but if this is my last post I would be happy with it.
This poem is an edit of an older poem.
I always personally loved it though.
Thank you all for supporting me.
I had a wonderful time on this site.
I’ll try to post if I get any more inspiration,
but activity will slow down for me.

I don't have much of a drive for poetry anymore. I do enjoy reading from time to time though. I'll be sure to read you and comment when I can, Crim. It's such a joy to think of the time I had to get to know you and other great poets. Big hugs 🤗

Well I'll be damn..
This one beautiful last poem! if only
the world had more fighting believers, instead of the so many
casualties
It would be pleasant to live
a little longer
Gonna miss you guy

You don't really need to miss me. We are friends and I'll always find ways to keep you updated on my life 😁 Not sure if poetry is something I'll ever get back into but I'm sure I'll still write once and a great while.

Truly amazing as always. Reading stuff like this takes me back to a time where someone thought that of me.

Well this is an edit of an older poem. When I wrote it, I wrote it for someone I had strong feelings for. I felt I was crushed in so many ways by the person this was for. Now I feel maybe I was a bit foolish. But just because someone stopped having those feelings for you doesn't mean someone else won't come along and give you the same feeling. The girl I'm with now gives me more than any other girl could. Thanks for reading me, friend. 😁

For someone with such a vicious love, you have a kind and beautiful natured soul. Haven't been here comment much but I love your work so much! And the art is wonderful, it looks like a water colour, gorgeous. I'm an art nerd lol.

It's wonderful to hear that. I got the "vicious love" thing from a NFG song. One of my favorite songs at that 😁 I appreciate people that enjoy my work. I don't get to post as much as I would like but I'll keep posting when I can 🤗
