get away from me
you're nothing but a two-faced lyncathropic waste of space.


One minute
the aura of beauty radiates like a rising sun
Second minute
I see the fangs and the disgusting rage
Third minute
You stormed away.

"Why do I put up with this?"
was the last thing you asked me
before you fumed off.
I ask myself the same question, sometimes.
Correction - all the fucking time.

Life is full of questions.
Like,
"I don't love you anymore."
Ha don't use that language rubbish with me
I know what a statement is.
You always have to seem clever
you think it's a bloody virtue.
It's just a face
for concealing all the hatred
for everyone but yourself.

how does it feel honey
when those fangs suck my blood dry

Last poem for a while, sorry if it seems like flooding.

woah...this was really great! A lot of people try to vent in their poetry but don't do it correctly...forget the language! this was awesome!

I really liked the first stanza. Your use of language is wonderful. I think that maybe it becomes a bit prosaic in the third stanza, but that is probably just me. I'm a sucker for pretty language.

Thanks a lot everybody.

Myriadne, I share your evaluation of the third stanza, however, I'm a bit stuck for ideas, I've kinda lost the flow of this poem now. Got any suggestions for improvement?

I really liked it and all, but one question: What language?
when there's nowhere to go, it's time to grow up.

Heya fire, long time no critique, eh? Well, to start off, this was pretty good. Over all, I liked it, but you lose me partway through it. The third stanza just...doesn't seem to fit. Actually, I think you might be able to completely do without it. It just seems like there was an idea you wanted in there, but it dosent' work, so you're going to put it in there anyway. Stubborn, aren't we?
I didn't lose my mind, I sold it on E-bay.

*looks at date* It IS old.
o.O

Well, it's good to dig up old pieces and see how you've improved since then.

I like that first stanza with counting the minutes, really seemed effective to create a sense of tension.

Faith did point out something; it seems to switch a sense of "style" in the first to second stanza. It didn't make the poem bad or anything, but it did seem to switch gears a little.
Wow...I want to thank so many people for being here...well of course, God...and um...Nate...let's see...Liz...Brad...Chevy...Satan.


They're all cool.

*blinks* VERY old. But I like this.. and I absolutely LOVE the last two italicized lines. It's so.. venomous. I can picture it being said with a harsh sneer on the speaker's face. Excellent.
Love and Light



The day, which was one of the first of spring, cheered even me by the loveliness of its sunshine and the balminess of the air. I felt emotions of gentleness and pleasure, that had long appeared dead, revive within me. Half surprised by the novelty of these sensations, I allowed myself to be borne away by them, and forgetting my solitude and deformity, dared to be happy.
