Through Their Eyes

To see is not to believe if we do not listen Strange that I may say these things With a knife by my hand, I listen For that sound I find peace within I look down towards my victim A beautiful grotesque creature, she is! Gouged out eyes, and red, quivering lips Her song brings me a life tuning tune To see is not to believe if we do not listen An odd ideology that is She has spent her days inside a locked room I hear strange sounds resound within But I would not leave it as it is For no, dark Cupid has arrived To wield his arrow towards those with doubtful eyes To see is not to believe if we do not listen Yet I heard what I saw To answer my own opinion, I struck her A bloody red blow to the jaw Corrupt love they gave me, but through their eyes I gave mine in return A love as deep, one they cannot simply ignore

Nana B., Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@
