Sand enters this icy castle unannounced
blasting bruises on my ego
an instantly, endlessly callusing series of punishment
Nobody can just wave a wand
and fix this fucked up mess
This self-therapy costs too much pride
and leads me to a string of shaken love
A determination patiently emerges
through stern eyes
and guarded heart
An enveloped, rageful reserve
has risen from my carelessness
and false acceptances of a benefit from the doubt, albeit loving
Yet, I must act accordingly
without cloak and dagger
if the venom doth coarse..
set a different course.
Remove my magnet from her compass
and let her find
what my path couldn't provide
..Truthfully, I can't really breathe either way
I simply cannot confess I still love you through this storm
..so becoming a once-loved villain will have to suffice
better for us than becoming a hated lover
better than taking you down with me
below our thin ice
The Beloved Villain Cometh
Bravo - When I need someone to read and feel like a poet who understands poetry (yeah right) I read your lines and feel reeeeeeally good. Beware of thin ice - loved this writing ~Lady A~
