Notes About The Poem

@itsjustbrittt

- the Demon Speaks -

You found my words
                                 - and you devoured them 

                                     The jungle is thirsty
                                   and you must satisfy it

                                       The infinity of love,
                                  a strong and deep feeling
                                           I'm numb
                                    Within short minutes
                                  you change personality
                                 - created by the monster
                                         A black raven
                                       ... steals in vain

                               Kissed by the lips of contempt
                                       Crimes and shame,
                                      burning in your veins
                                       -  facing the wall
                                           - emptiness
                                       'No pain, no gain'

Your pen is spilling dark thoughts onto the white fabric of my soul. Good write. Your avatar/photo made me smile, he's a dead-ringer for my own grandson. :) Have a happy holidays.

I really enjoyed this write - a deep poem filled with raven warning - the demon works in so many curious dangerous ways. A truly talented poem. Hugs and blessings Anne-Lise, Jenny.

Anne-Lise, I love this for the Raven's contempt and the bi-polar warning. Hope your Thanksgiving features a lighter bird. -Richard
