Robert Lindley Poet Rhyme

Pull Your Blade From My Bleeding Back

Pull Your Blade From My Bleeding Back


Pull your blade from my bleeding back
the cut can thus bleed all the more
Your deceit so deep I've lost all track
your love is, crap water on a dirty shore!

Stand back and watch me hurt and bleed
can you destroy my lost life any deeper
Such sickness feeds your twisted need
I the fool, thought you great and a keeper!

Pull your blade from my bleeding back
the cut can thus bleed all the more
Your deceit so deep I've lost all track
your love is, crap water on a dirty shore!

Recover I shall, from your vicious deeds
hope now invades my sick, bleeding heart
Someday you'll cry and send me lying pleads
such will be your lies so dead from the start!

Pull your blade from my bleeding back
the cut can thus bleed all the more
Your deceit so deep I've lost all track
your love is, crap water on a dirty shore!

Life returned my mind to think this out
pain gone, sanity gives to me this thought
Expose your evil with a just and high shout
on the hatred your selfishness dearly bought!

Pull your blade from my bleeding back
the cut can not bleed at all any more
I survived to live and love to now track
sweet justice now invading your sad shore!

Emile Pinet August 17, 2015 at 11:41 AM Your voice is added to the countless others that hear your words and we are in pain. An interesting an all too familiar face put on an old nemeses known as betrayal. Emile.

Gary Bateman August 17, 2015 at 9:19 AM Hello Robert!! A 7 + FAV from me here. What a message and what attendant imagery. This write certainly portrays the reverse image of Love (similar to what Ian mentions). This one has your usual trademark and tradecraft of poetic excellence in the creative tension of the versification and its high-quality articulation. (I noted the date you wrote this which was when I was just starting my Army career. So long ago.) Outstanding Work!! Cheers and Best Wishes, Gary
