[hometext] => Collaborative write between Dark_and_Cold and I. I wrote the main verses (from my perspective) and he wrote the rhyming parts, from our dual perspective. If it confuses you, just comment and ask for explanation of who's talking to whom -_-.
[bodytext] => The sound of her soft footsteps
So close as she passes by
Walking out of my life
I long to lift my gaze from the floor
If only for a second
But I look too often as it is
And it leaves me dying for more
And she says…
“I’ll see you tonight”
But I know where she’s going…
Our souls are crushed
We turn to dust
Betrayed by lust
In pain we trust
Tears burn my face as I turn away
If I look her eyes will captivate me
I will drown in those radiant pools
Her beautiful lips will lacerate me
The ghost of our love will rise
And I will lose the strength I need
To break my own heart
And she says…
“I’ll see you tonight”
But I know the taste in her kiss…
Souls in despair
Lovers beware
Life is unfair
And love is a snare
Hold me tightly while I cry
Silence my sobbing with your touch
Close my eyes with gentle kisses
How can anything hurt this much
I do not want to live anymore
I want to die in her arms
Would she even cry for me?
And she said…
“I’ll see you tonight”
But I know she’ll never see me again…
Our souls were crushed
Life was unjust
Betrayed by lust
In each other we trust
And he said…
“I’ll see you tonight”
And I know he loves me…

What a write. I really enjoyed this. The structure was unique, and I just so easily put myself into the male's shoes here. The ending was something I actually went through just today, so this hit me personally like a tonne of bricks. The past little while I've seen this kind of situation grow, and I don't know how else to say it, this just kind of struck a chord with me. The rhyming verses held some wisdom in their brevity as well. I really enjoyed this, it's nice to see collaborations coming out with this quality stuff.
None of the above was hyperbolic. This was enjoyable to read. |

Jacklyn & Brandin: You two did a great job with this piece. You should definitely consider another co-write in the future. This flowed effortlessly, and was a strong, emotive write. Hmmm...I seem to like to break my own heart too...lol
Keep it up you two!
