I Have......
By A Velvet Tongue
..feasted on love
..tasted of your bounty
..lapped of your sickly sweet flesh
..frozen time in a whisper
..captured a raw breath once fleeting
..stood on an empty corner
..poured a glass a merlot
..indulged in gluttony
..danced in a stinging rain
..felt the pure beauty within me
..cried a tidal wave of tears
..slit a makeshift throat
..waited for the right time
..coiled in a blanket of warmth
..known a drug called remorse
..flown a freedom's flag at half mast
..broken a vow made of silence
..spoken a promised secret
..delved into the bluest of eyes
..consumed a virgin in lust
..been weighed, measured, and left wanting
..brushed a rose petal against my cheek
..laid a bevy of eye candy
..waited on the wings of tommorrow
..sung with a voice laced in silk
..left without notice
..craved the light of the moon
..spun a web of deceit
..held a newborn babe, to my breast
..fumbled in extasy
..strangled the toast of damnation
..gazed out a window of sorrow
..left breathless, spinning to a jig of elation
..abandoned all of tommorrow
..lost to the waves of sickness
..pleasured one deemed a whore
..mourned the passing of lost love
..climbed upon a ladder of thorns
..broken a gentle soul
..given in to the unknown
..blessed a canvas of emptiness
..stood up for what I believe in
But, the one thing I've never done....

this is really pretty... makes one think of all the things they've done, and the things they have yet to do... if only some of the suicide-hungry children on this site could see with these eyes...
