Wreck-Gar (In My Dreams)

Quite a scary dream - that girl was getting rough

Allure pulling me closer: a threat pushing me afar

Why was that happening? Can't understand it

Someone explain - makes as much sense as Wreck-Gar...




Lying on a bed plush, taking in the landscape

She slinks up to me with a smile, in lingerie

My heart won't stop pounding - I can't understand why

It leaps, won't stop bouncing - I know not what to say



Now I must find the answer, snuggling closer

Enveloped in the warmth, the softness of the skin

I savour what I feel for sure, wary of the mystery

What could unfold now, other than our sin?



Whispers, just whispers, seep into my earlobes

Inquisitive promise - I'm keeping my guard

Flaming locks tease me, caressing my nostrils

A feeling inside me - defining is hard



Closer, come closer, she beckons, not speaking

Submerge myself in spiteful softness alluring

"Get back! Just get back! Don't come any closer!"

The spite trips from her tongue, drips from her lips, fissuring...



COME HITHER! GO AWAY!

SHOULD I GO OR SHOULD I STAY?

YOUR ACTIONS LEAVE ME SO CONFUSED;

TO COLD FROM WARM: I FELT REFUSED!



Quite a scary dream I felt the smooth turn rough

Allure pulling me closer: a threat pushing me afar

Why was that happening? Can't understand it

Someone explain - makes as much sense as Wreck-Gar...

I'm not completely sure why I like this poem so much...It might be because of the seeming randomness, or maybe it's just the uniqueness (for some reason, poems don't seem to have that quality anymore :( ). Plus, I like how there doesn't seem to be an obvious/any rhyme scheme. I think people overdo the "poems must rhyme" bit.

But seriously, great work hun! :)
