My Sweet Devil

-
You've found me wandering alone in your streets,
Lurking in the darkness, "Oh! What a treat."

Sing me a lullaby, my sweet Devil,
Put me under your spell.
Take me for a spin with your dazzling eyes,
Like we're at the carnival on a carousel.

Sink your teeth deep into my neck,
Whilst you defile my body's flesh.

Sing me a lullaby, my sweet Devil,
Paint me into something new.
Touch your lips to mine, poison me,
Color me in your favorite shade of blue.

    Maybe devil likes to be in the dark midnight Blue sky, Hoping you might meet in the darkness so the spell might make him immortal.

      It's completely the opposite of what I had in mind while I penned this down but this is a fun interpretation. Thanks for sharing your insight stranger :)

    This is fresh, dark and deep. Nice portrayal of someone falling in love with a wrong person. And how the emotion of love is stronger than the instinct to survive. Damn girl. It’s quite graphic!

      Babe!!!!!! You will not believe it, you're the only person who got it close to right about the premise of this post. Man! You know me so well (hint! hint!) :D

    I’m glad I did!
    Even if my eyes deny what they see, or ears pretend to go deaf when they hear you speak, I can feel those undertones and subtleties - loud and clear - like I am the only one you share your secrets with - even if you don’t.
    I want to jot something down too - perhaps you will read it soon.

    Here i am, the Devil in the dark, the one who defiles flesh and leaves his mark. It's always fun to read this stuff, seeing so much pain, looks like I have nothing to lose or for you to gain.
    And the truth is, the darkness is eternal where i come from, it was a moment in life where i chose to be wrong. It was fate that made you fall for me, when you didn't know the sadness that was around me.
    You always knew the Devil was in there and yet you chose to be so near,
    It's not the devil that brought you pain, it's the troll you never knew was there. :D

Innocence!

-
Tainted! That's the word I would use to describe my innocence. I remember that I was once young and naïve, before you walked in and destroyed my very being.    I must've been around the same age as your granddaughter, but that didn't stop you, no. Running your filthy hands all over me when you were supposed to teach me I remember feeling uneasy, but you dismissed it. It was all part of learning the art. Tell me, you sick pervert, how do you sleep at night?    I must've been a lot younger than you, but that didn't stop you, no. Cornering me on the last bench, trying to have your way with me. I remember feeling violated but you dismissed it. It was all part of feeling the high. Tell me, you sick pervert, how do you sleep at night?   I must've been around the same age as your sister, but that didn't stop you, no. Old enough for both of us to understand the meaning of the word "NO." I remember feeling disgusted with myself, but you dismi...

What I love about him....

-
This is inspired by the monologues at the beginning of the film "Marriage Story". I decided to keep a few lines the same, as they resonated with me, and let my imagination take care of the rest. What I love about him... he is articulate. He will have anyone hooked from the first five minutes of a conversation. He is very passionate about things that bring him joy, especially his craft. He works tirelessly and is dedicated towards chasing his dreams.   He is very self-sufficient—that man can cook himself dinner, sew a button, iron his shirt and clean up after himself. He never lets his jealously or insecurity get the best of him which I think I always do. He takes all of my moods steadily, he doesn't give into them or make me feel bad about them.   For someone who loves to stay only in his boxers, he's a great dresser and dancer. He never looks embarrassing, which is hard for a man. He is very composed. He loves being a host. He loves all the things you're ...

Black & White

-
Everyday is a battle ground. Sweat, tears and blood run me dry. Fighting something that only I can see. One moment everything falls calm and you think it's over but it never is, cause this battle I fight is with a black cat in the dark room. The silence in the room cannot subside the screeching screams inside my head. I keep begging them to stop but they only grow loud. The crowd in the room only makes me wanna run away, I cannot stand the eyes and noise that follow me places, it's the silence I crave just for a moment.  I close my eyes to touch the colours of the sky, the beauty is exemplary so the next second I paint it all black. It's the tendency of destroying things that make me happy that confines me.  Alone, I don't wanna be alone, just longing for a loving hug and a person to share myself with. The extended hand of comfort throws me off my guard, I push it away and run to my cave but I still can't find any peace.    I want this, no no I don...
