The Pen is Mightier than the Sword

I Would

This is a poem I wrote a while ago and just recently decided to post here, so don't worry, my girlfriend and I are doing fine ^_^;; anyway, I thought it was a fairly good piece, so here it is.

 

I would give my life for you

For all the things you do

But tonight I died again

A simple tearing at my heart

Tear me open with gentle words

Lay hands upon my heart and burn

I don't need my heart anymore

Take it from me please

 

I would tear myself into bits

Throw caution to the wind

Rend my sullied flesh

To forget about you...

 

All the time we spent

Has turned to acidic shame

I can't believe that I could

Burn in hell for love

But now I've come unglued

But not because of you

Because I was defective

A broken machine

 

I would numb myself to life

Help myself to strife

Die a thousands deaths

To forget about love

 

Love's my true enemy

It won't let me be

Every time I try

I end up so lost and damned

A knifeblade in my spine

Would be much less pain

Hell would be sweet symphony

To my lovelorn mind

 

I would.

Personally I love (pun intended) dramatic styles such as this, Falcon. All the lists of things you WOULD and CAN do is awesome. It makes everything appear in the future, as if there will BE a future for sure.

 

And I also am a lover of love. It is the best perpetuator of hope, after all.
