untitled, a poem

Untitled

there was a time
when I thought you were
my world
when I felt everything through you
when life was empty
unless you were there
in my life there has only been one
who consumed my heart
engulfed my soul
then extinguished my flame
knowing you were toxic
I drowned myself in your
sweet poison/not feeling the
effect till it was coursing through
my veins

slowly recovering
from the insanity that was
our love
from the madness that was
my life
bravely plunging into a
frightening black abyss
loneliness my constant companion
hope my only guide

another poem

This poem was supposedly written by Nick Carter...I don't truly believe it was. I like it, though, so here it is:


Dream

For you I was a poet, one night in your arms
with you the night became fire between your
legs
and groans of love for your fairies
I loved, love
your whole life
My arms envelop your waist
My hands draw your silhouette,
and my mouth sews embers across your face
that my kisses had left
like water filtering through the earth
the proof of my love melted in your soul
and like sparks that jump out of the fire
I covered you with my kisses.
My stare left you naked,
I took the secret of your soul.
