Angry Lover
I fuck you as both our hearts bleed.
We are empty in the depths
but we spend our nights in bed.
Why the fuck shouldn’t we?
I’ve paid you in suffering
and I’ve been damned for you,
will it ever be enough?
I promised you eternity,
but couldn’t deliver?
I fuck you as both our hearts bleed.
Hollow shells of us,
might as well get laid
since we’ve got nothing better.

dude seriously there is not much to this poem as far as i can tell this was a really shitty poem i mean yay "fuck" "lets have sex" that isn't a poem those are hoormones put into words not much to draw in a real reader all i can see in this poem is that your a horny ass guy and you need to find another muse aside from the little porno you got going on in your head.

As much as I hate defending a poem by saying that it's "honest" (as though honesty had anything to do with quality), this poem reflects a type of existential crisis I was having at the time, and periodically relapse into. This poem, at least for me, is interesting in its contemplation of values. Yes, much of that contemplation is suggested/implied, but doesn't every good poem make use of implication?
If this poem acted as a glorification of sex I might be inclined to agree that it's pornographic, but since a non-superficial reading suggests that this poem is about the emotional relationship, rather than about sex, I'd disagree with your labeling this pornographic.
