Fight Another Day!
your verbal foreplay and
sweet voice
was too hard to
resist
I was "that wee bit special"
quite often you'd
insist
but not enough to win
your heart
not in the way that
mattered
I have to still your
sweetened words
before my heart
Read the rest of the poem Show less
is
battered
you showed your love
for all to
see
and your heartfelt plea
brought tears
but as your words
sunk slowly in
they realised my
inner
fears
those words so sad
and beautiful
which you'd crafted from
your heart
were not for me and never
would be
I should have seen this
from the
start
I was damaged and
undone
before you came
and gave me
hope
my fragile spirit
cries in vain
for now I cannot
cope
I've walked this
road before
I'll soon arise to
fight again
no more prone
to lay on
the floor
looking up with
gratitude
at your selfish
attitude
I don't need your
sexual
favours
nor your words
in acid
flavours

"Again I appreciate your voice. The confidence to rip and show the wound of such a personal matter is increased by the fact that you aren't trying to hide it in artifice of any kind. There are some issues with meter and…" -

on I wish from @BlueDemon77
"There is a lot to like about this. Your candor and the simplicity with which you express yourself are refreshing. Some of us (speaking only of me, actually) get so caught up in the tangle of form or the ever dreaded 'cl…" -

About Me
About me
I love to write all that's in my heart or head. Whether, happy or sad, I just have to get it on paper.
I work as a Medical Secretary, full-time, so I don't have as much time as I'd like to learn more about writing poetry.
