Why can't I find you?
Why must you play so much with me?
Am I not good enough for you?
Must you always shun or run away from me once I find you?
I found you when I was younger, you left
I found you again today but, will you stay just this once?
Nothing is fair
Nothing is going the way I would like it to
You point the handle of a knife towards me and beg me to take it
"Thrust it through your heart!" you coax me
So many times I thought of your invitation
But will you help me?
Will you help me when I'm too close to hell
Or will you leave me to bleed and fall into the inferno of the damned?
Once in your life, will you embrace me?
I want to feel your chest against mine
Breathing in and out so lightly and your heart keeping a romantic beat
You whisper something in my ear but I don't know what you say
I'm too caught up in my dreams
You bring me out of them when I suddenly feel your lips pressing against mine
It's heaven! It has to be!
The only thing keeping me here on Earth are your gentle strokes on my skin
Up and down, around in small circles, then pressing me closer to you
Already claiming my mouth as yours as you explore it with your tongue
But then, you disappear with no fair warning
WHAT DID I DO!? WHAT DID I DO WRONG!?
Only tears are my answers
Only the hand curling around the knife is what I see
Only the cold metal through my heart is what I feel
It hurts to even say your name
It even hurts to say your name...

- Title: Love
- Artist: Deadly Aleera
- Description: I wrote "Love" after I broke up with my first love. I thought that we would be together for all four years of high school, but in the end, my heart was shattered. It surprised me when all of this came from my feelings.

- No rhythm, and at least you could've post some rhyme. I think it would be best to make it a short passage then a poem.

You repeated 'you' too often. Develop some rhythm. Develop something worth reading the poem for. Please.
Lines 17-27 are alright. Stanzas are your friend. Really. - Report As Spam
