The Pain of Your Love

The pain of your love, pricks me to the bone Like a pissed off praying mantis, I plead with tentacles The pedigree of your love, powers me to a craze Pumps my heart to a refill, primes my soul for a play Painstakingly I peel back, promises in sync Perilous is my denial, for you poisoned me with love Where my past dwells, and the present relishes A bowl of wet rose petals, a morning petit four The palms of your hands, with a petal soft pat Your name puts me in a party spirit, oh poetic darkly Having your love down pat, a huge payload there is Would you pay me back, for I am a parrot not You ply in my veins, you keep my password Your prowl a peachy keen, peek-a-boo it poses I placate you with praise, I pledge my loyalty to you Oh poetic darkly, I pledge my soul for your love

Hassan, congrats on getting an Honorable mention on my "Confessional" contest! I have to tell you that your verbiage & word flow here were very potent and full of heart. "You ply in my veins, you keep my password", damn! Great work!
