Rubies.
You compared my lips to them.
Rubies.
Red like blood.
You made me bleed that day.
I thought I hated you.
Wanted to make you pay.
Yet I still love you.
Though I can’t see why.
Rubies.
The color of your favorite tie.
I wanted to strangle you with it.
You always made me cry.
We didn’t seem to fit.
And yet I can’t seem to give you up.
I love you too much.
Rubies.
The color of my face when you made me blush.
That was quite often.
Your lips were so lush;
When they softened.
You were always angry with me.
Said I was headstrong.
Yet you fought for me.
Even when I told you it was wrong.
Rubies.
Always the color related to blood.
You shirt was sodden with blood that day.
So I guess that’s why they say;
Men are stupid for fighting duels.
But rubies are such exquisite jewels.

Your final rhyme seemed a little forced, as the link was a little tenuous between blood and rubies, as I don't find that there a predeliction against 'crimson blood', as opposed to 'ruby red blood'.
You kept your poem in the right direction throughout, however. I do like the way you equally separated your use of the word 'rubies', and it was a colourful theme.
I am intrigued by your number, also - that is one of the reasons i clicked on your poem.
Thanks for sharing this. |

I like your title. Why don't you mosey on over to the mystical/mysterious poetry and read and comment on my poem Tiny Red Rubies (Not Like in the Movies) ? I'd 'ppreciate muchly.
Well-written ryhmed verse, good visual imagery, and good word pairing "jewels" with "duels"!
Jolly Good Show! |
