TO THE RELUCTANT VIRGINI am standing out here in the cold and you wouldn't let me in while fruitpearls of rain make tracks against my skin and soundwaves of pain crash unheeded in the din while I forlornly gaze so bold as desolation walks in Walks in as your strange bedfellow in the absence of my flesh you and desolation caught adrift in a fine wire mesh moonspirits wail their discontent as banshees howl their brute caress sunkissed clouds turn nimbus-black as desperation bleeds afresh Bleeds afresh within your hardened heart while the weight of the world tears us apart I am standing here and you wouldn't let me in while fruitpearls of rain dance around my skin So who would keep you company in this dark cold windy night? Ah, chastity can be bitter even though it may be right. ------------------ Sun in Aries, Moon in Pisces, Leo rising... your fellow sojourner in this earthly plane. IP: Logged |

Thank you, Bluemoon and Heart-Shaped Cross! I was beginning to despair that nobody wanted to read my poem in this forum, coz I posted it a while back and everytime I visited, the replies remained at zero. It encourages my poet's heart to get some feedback. Thank you!------------------ Sun in Aries, Moon in Pisces, Leo rising... your fellow sojourner in this earthly plane. IP: Logged |

Thanks, shirty! A sense of completion... hmm, I haven't really thought of that. Like closure, you mean? ------------------ Sun in Aries, Moon in Pisces, Leo rising... your fellow sojourner in this earthly plane. IP: Logged |

Hello, Lotusheartone! Thank you for your concern. When I wrote the poem, I took on another persona. It's not about me personally, but I was kinda putting myself in the shoes of someone frustrated with his/her lover's reluctance to consummate the relationship in a deeper way. I wrote it the day after Valentine's, so maybe that's why I got so sentimental. Personally speaking, I've been out of any relationship for such a long time now that I've forgotten how it is to be in one. Meanwhile, time and life are passing me by... ------------------ Sun in Aries, Moon in Pisces, Leo rising... your fellow sojourner in this earthly plane. IP: Logged |
