Under My Skin

She crawled under my skin today

and nestled beside my heart

playing foolishly,

she opened her claws and began to tear

my flesh apart,

strand by strand

creating a crimson river on which

she choked and spluttered

gagging on my love

and then she rested her head beside my ribs

and closing her eyes

She fell asleep,

alongside my weakening heartbeat

Thanks when I read the title it reminds me of Frank Sinatra.

 

He use to sing a song.

 

I've Got You under my skin.

 

Ive got you under my skin

Ive got you deep in the heart of me

So deep in my heart, that youre really a part of me

Ive got you under my skin

 

Ive tried so not to give in

Ive said to myself this affair never will go so well

But why should I try to resist, when baby will I know than well

That Ive got you under my skin

 

Id sacrifice anything come what might

For the sake of having you near

In spite of a warning voice that comes in the night

And repeats, repeats in my ear

 

Dont you know you fool, you never can win

Use your mentality, wake up to reality

But each time I do, just the thought of you

Makes me stop before I begin

cause Ive got you under my skin

 

Thanks Comfy! I love your poem.

Well when I hear the song in future I will think of your poem.

 

Love

Jeen

i am sorry to have ruined such a beautiful Cole Porter song for everyone!.

 

there is nothing beautiful abou this poem, it is nothing but pain as words

 

Why do we write poetry, songs, to give expression to feelings good or bad.

 

For often we can relate to it, and for that reason we will call it beautiful for it do strike a cord in us.

 

And no you didn't ruin the Cole Porter song for me. Jeen

 

Sorry I use associations to remember things and that is why I said it the way I did in my previous post comfyshoes.

Sorry please forgive me
