My true love

By LordCaballero

As rain falls on arid land my heart hardens.
Reminders of the day I saw your face.
You did not know my name, but I knew yours,
I loved you before I was born.

Ever since I discovered love,
I have scoured the caves ,the ocean, the trees
Reminded of you by the summer breeze.
I waited for you, you never came,
Until I finally saw you,
You lit the flame.

Now I have finally found you,
But you do not love me back,
We were made for each other
You do not understand.
But slowly I have realized,
it is easier to reach the sun than your heart,
and I rapidly descend into darkness.

How I wish i could steal you,
And drown you deep inside of me.
You are the only one I loved,
If only I could,
You would be mine forever.

  • A former member wrote: That was great we have all been there before but you put in a place where words dont describe beautiful good job

  • A former member wrote: Excellent work.........and i perfectly understand the sentiments you speak of in this poem, considering that I am going through the exact same thing. It is a haunting darkness that creeps with slow, measured and sure strides that only inevitability could be capable of. Indeed, one of the bitterest experiences that can be experienced, to love and yet be unloved.

    Dangerous, potent infatuation. Like something that crawls and drags through the mind of a serial killer, as he tosses and turns at night, dreaming of his first victim. Or relishing the anticipation of his next. LOL, please don't think that I think you're a serial killer. Hahaha. That's just where my mind goes. Excellent work. Welcome to darkpoetry.

    the excess question marks take away from the feelings... kind of makes it feel like some sort of melodramatic blog instead of poetry...

    You're right thanks, I changed it.

  • A former member wrote: "How I wish i could steal you, And drown you deep inside of me. You are the only one I loved," The last stanza was kind of scary in an obsessive way. :-D You'll fit in well here. Welcome to Dark Poetry!!! Why the question marks at the end?
