Dancing With the Devil
I saw the devil and he smiled at me.
He grinned back like he knew what I was thinking.
I said, "Hey, did you come to take me away Mr. Devil?"
He replied: "No, I only came to dance with you."
He took my hand, kissed it and gave me a twirl.
We danced under the moonlight,
Cheek to cheek to imaginary music.
He was very handsome and whispered in my ear,
All the wonderful things he wanted to do to me later.
His hand was strong in mine,
His hot breath was upon my neck.
He charmed me and bewitched me to my core.
We danced and kissed so deeply
Beneath the trees along the lake.
His eyes pierced my soul, looking deep within,
My heartbeat raced as I fell in love with him.
I danced with the devil, dancing face to face,
Cheek to cheek in beautiful rhapsody.
He left with me breathless as we went to my place
Where we made sweet love until the sun came up.
He left the next morning and my body tingled
Like never before.
He had set me on fire,
I never saw him again except in memory.
I'll never forget my romantic dance with the devil.
Take some Advice
Learn to be nice
And stop being mean
Because your not a teen.
And being a hypocrite isn't fun
Nor should it be ever done
Your not innocent
Not even the littlest.
Hypocrisy's Nemesis
The face you show to the world is false
A deceit intended to mislead;
To draw in the innocent
So that you can manipulate
And corrupt to your evil ends
I see you; I see your artifice.
I will expose you, expose your fraud
And your deviancy.
The face you show to the world
Is not the face I see
For I am your Nemesis:
Your exposure is my mission
Your defeat the ultimate conclusion.
Be afraid, Hypocrisy
Your days are numbered.
Blocked
How funny that I can see,
that you have blocked me.
Must make you so glad,
because I made you so mad.
All because of an unreasonable fight,
you gave it all your might.
But what is this that I spy?
Because I kept an cautious eye.
Unblocked, that's isn't right.
But I'll keep my wall up alright?
After a day, blocked once again.
What game are you playing?
Once more I am unblocked.
You think I'll remove the padlock?
You're mistaken, I won't take advantage.
bombing stories is wrong for any age.
but I know that is what you planned,
because you won't let this madness end.
How insulting that you do not see,
that I will never treat you the way you treat me.
How sad that you decided to attack,
with me and the wall to my back.
Did you really think I would back down?
and let you make me a clown?
how can you sit idly by?
Giving advice to others and I ask why.
shouldn't you follow it yourself.
but no you keep to yourself.
And as much as I want to say go to hell.
I think about it and well.
what would that prove in the end?
other then we were no longer friends.
But that was already established, we can't get along.
So don't get me wrong.
Rebellion can claim a new leader.
Life tried and just cannot beat her.
She stands up so tall..
Rises after every fall..
It doesn't matter at all how you treat her.
She knows victory always rises within.
She's as strong as she has ever been.
Rebellious_Soul..
Was always her goal..
You can't say her name without a grin.
There was bedtime,
then there were snuggles,
then sweet dreams,
but after that it was all shattered.
Cold morning air hit me,
I grumbled,
the peace was gone.
Morning has broken
and so has my temper.
Don't look at me,
don't breathe,
don't do anything abrupt.
Morning, you heartless cow,
I don't like you.
I'd rather be in my bed,
snuggled with my Kitten.
My Star
You are my star and constellation
I have been looking all of my life.
I searched the horizons,
My soul so alone.
I longed for you all this time.
Searching through every crack and crevice.,
Finding no one and nothing.
I hungered for the impossible, the unattainable.
I got lost in the shadows,
Loving the darkness, never finding light.
Drowning in infinite pain,
Always reminded how alone I was
All that time.
One night you wrote to me, intrigued,
Out of the blue.
You liked what you saw and read,
You could understand where I came from.
I looked again at the immense sky,
Saw you hurdling to me like lightening.
You are my star, my love, what
I've waited for all my life.
You shine brighter than any diamond,
And you're worth more than all
The gold in the world.
Your heart I love, my star.
I keep you constantly close to me,
Holding you deep within.
I'm so glad I found you,
I can finally stop searching.
What I looked for I finally found,
Making you my permanent home.
Not Another Love Poem
We all know love is wonderful
We all know love is great
Everybody wants to tell the world
Everyone wants to celebrate
But there is always a balance to be struck
Between sharing and shoving it in one’s face
For everything there is a time
For everything there is a place
Being drip-fed loved-up saccharine
Day after tedious day
Is enough to make the stomach roil
Just how many ways can you say
I love/adore/worship her
(Or love/adore/worship him)
Dozens of the same declarations of love
Leave one’s mood rather grim
Congratulations all of you in love
You joy is clearly unbounded
But why you keep preaching to the converted
Leaves me quite dumbfounded
The message has been heard loud and clear
Over and over again
Any more of this loved-up sickliness
Is going to drive me completely insane!
Come now, show some mercy
And a little emotional restraint
I enjoy a good love poem normally
But a love poem this one ain’t!
Just because you are not loved
Or you love deeply, you needn't tell me
What to write or whom to share with. Don't tell me
To shut up about it.
I am free to tell the world who I love
Or why.
Don't like it? Don't read it.
That's very petty.
I hate when there is jealousy.
Or whatever the heck you're feeling.
Bitter does NOT look good on you!!
Everyone supported you when you
Talk about your childhood and your mother,
So don't be hypocritical.
I am getting a head ache.
How many fights can you make?
Why don't we just eat cake.
I have some I hand baked.
yours was mean and childish.
Big chip on your shoulder.
big bloody whoop
who cares who I love???
don't like it? don't read it.
I never asked for YOUR opinion.
not responsible for how YOU feel about what I write
Do you SERIOUSLY believe that that poem is about YOU??? My God, your conceit is boundless!
If I have anything to say about your work - or anybody else's for that matter - I make my comments on the work or in a private message. I DO NOT take to the public forums to air my grievances, unlike some...
MY poem was a gentle dig at the plethora of love poems that have appeared on the site recently, which even I have been guilty of adding to you may recall. How dare you have the nerve to ASSUME that I was having a personal dig at you just because my post followed yours?
If you re-read the poem you will see it is a generalised poke at all the poems, NOT at you, not at anybody in particular, unlike your responses to me. You've over-reacted, not for the first time.
Andy.. do you have an off-switch? You go into every thread and find a way to antagonize someone. It is really getting tiresome. You are the epitome of a troll and while you may have friends here, your options for making more are dwindling. As a long time member of SS, I am requesting that you tone down your rhetoric, focus on the topic of the thread, generally keep your comments to yourself unless invited, and lastly, be respectful to other members here. We have earned it.
Thank you for your cooperation.
And we are back
It has been three months
A new contester has taken the plate.
The love sick lady taken the bait.
Oh wait...
Sorry I got it reversed.
Oh well doesn't matter.
I'm going to watch this out there.
Where It is safe and clear.
And watch as the battle starts here,
Say would anyone like a beer?
I hope you both know what You're doing.
Because I am sick of fighting
But this peace your unwinding.
Will be back when your done whining.
Both unreasonable, hot headed, opinionated.
Just like me.
Just don't actually try and kill each other.
Not good for the reviews.
I had my bouts with her.
I had my fight with him.
And really, neitger side wins.
What happens when they fight?
Well that is a dreaded site.
Someone here this plite.
And make it stop.
