love me this way

By cre

love me in my plastic house
when things get shaky
the snow falls down
frosting the two foot pine and
windows blank on the inside
love me in my souvenir swirl
the light bends and softens up the glare
and sparkles make it seem easier to believe
that all is good and love is safe
and life -if cold- is fair
love me in my snowglobe world
you can't reach me
but that's what makes it all ok.

-love me this way-

or love me not at all.

    I still laugh at some of the things you said about Monkey and me being demented roleplayers .. Well I allways found fantasy pictures of "pixes in a jar" to be horrific in a very sinister human way. This poem hits the same note in me. I love your snowglobe imagery, and how the line -Love me this way- is like the very glass that borders it to the reader .. So now I think I just traped a fantasy pixie and enjoyed it .. That is the horrific part? Not realy since your great writting skills and intelligence planned it all :p There is and was alot, that love you "that way".

    You use detail in your words I've never seen in any others poems, and I'm always left in awe (and a bit of envy;0) after reading a poem by Cre.

    What a great twist on the "built up walls" theme!

    "love me in my snowglobe world you can't reach me but that's what makes it all ok" - you're ability to turn a phrase never disappoints. I seldom have time to comment anymore, but I always read your work. Ciao, T/S Scholar

    i loved the flawless analogy and the wisdom of grace portrayed here, the message is strong and the words are beyond beautiful and life -if cold- is fair i loved that part and the last two lines

    small words , shouted , but muted .. so many levels to this .. touched upon , and convincing .. eloquent is an understatement here ... funguy

    pretty and sad... but i think this speaks to a deeper foerm of love... the love that's still there when they can't get what they want... the love that's given without reciprocation needed. love without rules and limits and expectations. lovely.

    You need to write far more often girlie. I've missed stayin' up reading your stuff. It's good to see you're still alive. As always, rock on.
