Souls in Despair

Contributed by Lashing_Tongue on Wednesday, 2nd November 2005 @ 07:19:43 PM in AEST
Topic: anguished



The sound of her soft footsteps
So close as she passes by
Walking out of my life
I long to lift my gaze from the floor
If only for a second
But I look too often as it is
And it leaves me dying for more

And she says…
“I’ll see you tonight”
But I know where she’s going…


Our souls are crushed
We turn to dust
Betrayed by lust
In pain we trust


Tears burn my face as I turn away
If I look her eyes will captivate me
I will drown in those radiant pools
Her beautiful lips will lacerate me
The ghost of our love will rise
And I will lose the strength I need
To break my own heart

And she says…
“I’ll see you tonight”
But I know the taste in her kiss…


Souls in despair
Lovers beware
Life is unfair
And love is a snare


Hold me tightly while I cry
Silence my sobbing with your touch
Close my eyes with gentle kisses
How can anything hurt this much
I do not want to live anymore
I want to die in her arms
Would she even cry for me?

And she said…
“I’ll see you tonight”
But I know she’ll never see me again…


Our souls were crushed
Life was unjust
Betrayed by lust
In each other we trust

And he said…
“I’ll see you tonight”
And I know he loves me…

What a write. I really enjoyed this. The structure was unique, and I just so easily put myself into the male's shoes here. The ending was something I actually went through just today, so this hit me personally like a tonne of bricks. The past little while I've seen this kind of situation grow, and I don't know how else to say it, this just kind of struck a chord with me. The rhyming verses held some wisdom in their brevity as well. I really enjoyed this, it's nice to see collaborations coming out with this quality stuff.

None of the above was hyperbolic. This was enjoyable to read.

Jacklyn & Brandin: You two did a great job with this piece. You should definitely consider another co-write in the future. This flowed effortlessly, and was a strong, emotive write. Hmmm...I seem to like to break my own heart too...lol
Keep it up you two!
