Full Version: My distant lover
BrainMeta.com Forum > Literature & Art > Poetry
Malaki
My mind is sick, twisted thing.
My love, though, is pure.
Thoughts that kill, a heart that’s yours.
Always had been yours.

Two sides to all I do;
Constant pain, Elated joy.
The same mind.
This one boy.

Simple words, unfathomed.
Self loathing on a cosmic scale.
Hatred speaks in silence.
All I’ll do is fail.

True Karma in action.
Hate yourself and love another.
Want to scratch, to stab, serrate.
Need for she, my distant lover.
+Steven Curtis Lance
My dear Malaki, I am ALWAYS gentle!

Welcome among us, and thank you so much for writing and posting this poem. I know it is scary the first time, but we are a nice lot round here. Well... there is one flamer... but she hates only me; you're quite safe.

I am so happy you have come to be among us here. It has been an especially strange day hereabouts--we had a bit of a dustup with the *shudder* critique board, but all is harmonious as ever here on the dear old poetry board, our little town where I, your humble servant, preside benignly. What I mean to say is that I find myself in California on PST and it is now nearly midnight, and I'm sleepy, but I really do want to welcome you and thank you for your poem...

...and to assure you that I am always a gentle gentleman, especially to such a nice poet and new friend.

Respect and Solidarity!

(I'm British too!)

Malaki
There are two roads one could go down in replying;

a ) You're British, so naturally you're a gentleman, according to the stereotypes smile.gif
b ) You're British and you're a gentleman? Good god! Explains you not being in the country.

*ahem*

Either way, thank you for the greetings.
Hey Hey
That was good, friend.

Thanks Hey Hey.

And if my comments make no sense, it's because of the penguins.
Hey Hey
Yes, I find them difficult to swallow too!

You received two exclamation marks from anonymust. That's equivalent to 11/10, so well done.

Hey Hey (just 30 miles away!)
