Array ( [sid] => 177416 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Poison [time] => 2013-12-23 07:36:29 [hometext] => [bodytext] => My fleeting heart is poisoned

The infection yet to spread

I can feel it deep inside me

Seeping toxins to my head

My pulse has lost its rhythm

As your words create new beats

Some of pain and some of passion

To cool the weary summer heat

You’ve brought me here for nothing

I’m just a toy; it’s all a game

My heart still bloodied badly

From a vicious love roulette

These melodies I write you

You know nothing but the words

You’ll never hear the blissful song

Nor come to understand the hurt

I can reach every peak in sight

I can topple mountain tops

But this never-ending pain

I can’t seem to make it stop

When you came into my life

I was lonely; you were there

Time has torn us both apart

But still, I know you care

The water drowns the flame

But you see, I’m airy like a child

And though earth is your support

I’m the one that drives you wild

So even when it’s you and her

I’ve no doubt I cross your mind

Like the poison in my own still heart

I’m creeping up inside

Still, while I’ve nothing left

I find ways to bide my time

Face the fact that it’s all over

But I’ll wait my whole damn life

If nothing else, you’ll always be

The only one I’ll ever need

So when the world has worn you thin

When the winds of fortune blow you out

I’ll be waiting in this fortress

Of inadequate self-doubt

My path is paved with hues of blue

Until this road leads me to you

And in the darkness of the night

I’ll let this poison reign inside

Until I know I’ve reached the end

Where hopefully, I’ll have my friend

And my fleeting heart will yearn

Even if the flame has ceased to burn [comments] => 3 [counter] => 107 [topic] => 48 [informant] => satanssecret1369 [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => EmotionalPoetry )

This is beautiful...I can relate to what your saying. Love is undoubtedly like a poison and it takes over almost like a disease. I really like this writting and I will be looking forward to reading more from you.
Warmest wishes,
Nika

Hello,

The ideals of your poem are universal, love lost and the desire for what has been. I particularly enjoyed this stanza:

So when the world has worn you thin

When the winds of fortune blow you out

I’ll be waiting in this fortress

Of inadequate self-doubt

The desire to wait even though you know it will never be, and the doubt that comes with it.
