A Wounded Glass

All alone, on a ground of thorns
Sitting coldly with hollow hands
I taste the rustiness of time
Lonely with a glass of therapy
Holding it calmly with a fake smile
A diamond breathes in my blood
Yet a sharp pin twists in my eyes
Born beautiful, until time has exposed the ugliness in my veins
My deed etches shattered passion
My will torn by the tyranny of weakness
Mist in my path, anesthesia in my scream
My eyes won't rest until my demon is eliminated
He’s here, there, everywhere
Twisting his infernal horns of sins in my sentiments
I arouse him inside me with flames of lust
I beg him to prosper my desire through magnificent satisfaction!
Born as the shadow of sins obscures my spirit
I am the demon, I am the sin, and I am EVE!

wow...wow..I am impressed... with the ending... and the way you start the poem. I so so love this poem. I know you are new here. But, I defiantly have to favorite this poem, it has nothing to do with this line -->"I am the demon, I am the sin, and I am EVE!" now that's the line of lines. I AM EVE ;-) A diamond breathes in my blood <--- awesome... thanks for the power of thought, when it comes to were one originates. wounds and all.... excellent~ LINDA

Awwww...thanks, Caleb. Yes, I do know Eve, and I've been after her to get her work out there. She was a student of mine and is still precious to my heart. Glad you like her work! :)
