If I Could

Sounds like a heartbreak waiting to happen!

As they all have been

An emotional drain. Great poem. Nicely executed. Cool format as well!

Appreciate you Keith

❤️

Thank you

Mich like I tried to write about the love I had when I first joined DU
Sadly no more

Fuck em! We'll be alright. I think that's what you're supposed to say...

We live in hope but this is a year on since last I heard from her.
My love doesn't fade as our souls were made to entwine forever

I understand how you feel and your choice of word.

Melancholy ending for sure.  You set me up for that one.

Sorry...not sorry. Thank you for reading and commenting.

If you could...

Show me how much I don't mean to you...

Squeeze my heart so you can feel again as I gasp for air.

Touch me with your words; your hands, your tongue, your contempt...

Hold me down as you make me take in your 'affections' deep and hard.

Impressing in me just how vital you are to me, how much I must have you.

That you would...

Make me live for you
Make me die for you
Make me kill for you
Make me steal for you
Make me cry for you
Make me scream for you
Make me come for you
Make me give myself to you

If you could...

Make me beg you to stop...
Then I would belong to you.

The ending was perfect Darkness...
How quickly a single line can change the entire message... I love that.
I could definitely feel it! ;) (hope you don't mind my inspired response above ;) ...)

That was an incredible response. Polar opposite. Well fucking done. That made my day. Thank you Kristina. I bow before you. It is well earned.

Well hell yeah... I love that response so much. ;)

If anything else I have written or write in the future inspires in you a response, please do not hesitate!

Thank you, I know there is a lot of inspiration to be found. :)
I am on a work trip at the moment but I plan to read more when I can.

I appreciate that. My writings are simple when compared to someone with talent such as yours, but they are all personal, real and raw nonetheless. That is the source of the best poetry, to me and the type that draws me in.

Your stuff is absolitely beautiful. Im a bit ashamed to say, I wish I had the ability to understand the full breadth of it. It is clear that your writes are deep and profound. Layers upon layers and my mind struggles to dig deeper under the surface. I find myself in awe.

Hi Darkness, sorry for taking so long to reply to this... This business trip was quite a crazy one. Personal, real and raw is all we ask for. Your writing is definitely not simple and you don't need to compare it because it's uniquely your own. My writing is also Personal, real and raw so of course that's why we connect through our writing.

There are a lot of meanings and as you read you will understand more and more. But anyway, I absolutely adore that you think so highly of my writing. I don't know what to say... X

Please don't apologize. You are not beholden to respond in any specific timeframe. Im just thrilled that you responded at all. Your encouragement means a lot to me. Your talent level and yes, the fact that your writes are also personal, real and raw command a great deal of respect from me.  
 
I will continue to peel back the layers of KristinaX in an attempt to get to those meanings, the things that make up your core. I am quite intrigued.
