Devil Within 25 08 2013

All my poems writ by only the greatest of pains, Every verse born out of the memory that remains. I sat in silence to study its golden delight; Only for this Dreamer to awaken his Devil tonight… Just like Jesus without His wine- Or a poet without his rhyme. Mankind bastards tainted my soul; Raped my words and played me whole! Safely away from my world- in a midnightmare, White rose withering- my corpse the Devil’s lair. Witnessing another black rose born, Silently… On a forlorn winters morn… “Aw dumb boy, romantic only on paper. Your virginity lost in a single verse. Death has woven Her wedding dress at the Genesis of thy birth… “ Penta stanza’s without Heaven’s grace, Devil kin and Oblivion without a face. Put a stake right through my Heart… Drag me out to the sunshines dart…

Except for the 2nd and 4th verse, rhyming lines are consistent in other stanzas - though it is the writer's privilege how to present his style. Regardless of form and meter, it's a great write

Well it was one of my earlier poems, when i was still, lets say- beginning to find my style. Also I recall breaking the rhyme for the 4th stanza to put emphasis on it. All my poems have this necrotic feel too it, and if I'm not writing a poem about depression in general I like to break the rhyme, as it isn't continuous like my depression, but more about stages and important factors in my life.

Any emotion can pen the best of words, pain is often something better described in poetry than in any other form. Sometimes you need to be in the dark to see the light. Your writing is very interesting and intelligent. This is very good as are your other poems. Kind Regards, Laura.
