Toxic words invade
deceiving charm persuades

An emotion riddled shame
what you didn't say maims
Slit the throat
of the feelings spoke

This scar adheres
a reminder of fears
Let the blood seep
into your conscience creep

Suture your lips
don't let the words slip
Before your heart reveals

I truly hope u find a good loving person who will treat u with the love and respect that u deserve. A very clever and talented miss who just hasn't had any luck in the love stakes.
Move on my friend. Leave the past behind u.
You're a bright, intelligent and gifted person who deserves so much happiness in her life.
An absolutely very well detailed piece of poetry filled with such sadness. Chin up girl.
Hugs,
Sue, Dreamer

Aw...Scorp-en-a-tor!!!!!!!

((((((((((Scorpenator)))))))))

My friend. Such emotion engulfed in an absolutely wonderfully scripted write. 5/5
Pick up that beautiful heart. In no way should it be down there as anyone's doormat ! ! ! :)
Okay, kewl....see now? See how your heart is so wonderful and caring? It is such an incredibly astonishing marvelous Scorpenatorerrific heart that should never be left out in the weather for the elements to get to and deserves extra special treatment just like it treats others. Whoever has even inadvertently without regard or with no compassion, whether intentionally or unintentionally used it for a doormat can go get himself a doormat for $6.99 at Wal*Mart!!!

This extra special superiffic heart along with it's incredible owner, The one and only Scorpenator, deserves only the best. If not today, someday, definitely the best will open his eyes and see this gem for what she is really worth.

Holy smokers... the opening was just piercing with graphic hurt and invasion. I thought the "toxic words" line was especially powerful and true about relationships that are not meant to be.

Oh oh, and "slit the throat of feelings spoke?" whoa, that's heavy hurtin... i'm sorry to hear it... but the imagery, rhyme and clever wordplay is undeniably crafty.

Take care and i hope that all goes well for your heart and your ultra fine writing.

  • *Cringes*

    It's hard to add onto the comments already made;
    but I agree, the unique rhyme scheme drew me in,
    and the wordsmithing and playing was an amazing touch..

    The last line was heart-wrenchingly painful. Owwie.

    He doesn't deserve you..

    *****Pain induced
    bleeding profuse
    Toxic words invade
    deceiving charm persuades

    Oh yes. There are a lot of charmers. Silly me, I fell for many fascinating words from beautiful people.

    Gosh, and you just roll in the sweetness. Then you find out later on, you have been cheated and mislead. Oh its a terrible experience.

    *****what you didn't say maims

    Can this be worse? Wondering what those hidden thoughts are. What is not said, also feels empty. No suggestions at all. Nothing to associate with, nothing to be involved with. You feel cheated in many ways. The truth is covered up. It does leave scars.

    *****Suture your lips
    don't let the words slip
    Before your heart reveals
    what your mind struggles to conceal

    I remember my mother telling me often, to button up my lips, or sew up my lips, if I can't say something nice, or before I tell a lie.

    Sometimes actions lie. I agree with the last two sentences here.

    *****Before your heart reveals
    what your mind struggles to conceal

    lol. who struggles more. The receiver or the sender. Or both? Does the deceiving individual wear those same scars or not.

    Which brings me to Karma.. What will happen to these people, to resolve a situation. Will those people's existence be changed in nature.

    Doesn't the saying go, "What comes around, goes around" or is that a saying for something else lol. Am getting old, forgetting all these wise sayings lol.

    I do not like the last line Scorp. lol.

    *****Watch my words fall flat
    my heart---your doormat

    You need not be abused, by words or the lack of them.

    Wonderful write, lots of thoughts go into this one.

    Great title by the way.

    Effective dialogue of conflict, contact with self..

    Thank you..always wonderful to read your poems.

    Raquel Leah :D

    I would disagree that this poem is nothing special. I think it is very special, afterall what is more important then one's heart. The heart skews whatever we see through the portal of life. So how our heart feels influences our mood, which reflects back on what we observe. And your observations in this poem are sad, but very powerful. The imagery is fantastic; starting with the first stanza. Wow!

    Sorry, I didn't mean this as a lecture, Scorp

    Well done

    Will
