Negative Stimulus

[m_darko]

This hole is my sunken temple

My place of worship and solitude

I've settled here in this tomb of desiccated selfishness

Like a beggars masquerade of wealth

I am happy and content

 

Green eyes are upon me

Not from amazement or intrigue

You laugh and smile and touch

But you do not know me

 

You seek to care for others

only to compensate for your humdrum existence

An existence which we both share

I will give no compassion

I know the truth

 

A simple manifestation of happiness has brought you to me

It will only end in pain

You are not a friend, you’re an infliction

An emotional mistake

 

Levitation may be my only friend

It sits on a shelf in my room…waiting

There are others I know and like

But none make me fly like you do

Wasn't that bad guys!

[yeawutever]

It wasn't bad, it rocks!!!!!!!!

[jadence]

geroff them grass dude. it wasn't bad at all!

 

ahh, i can even relate to it, dang.

 

i always wanted to write poetry just like that. apparently, i'm not good at it. no matter how hard i tried, it still sounded silly. anyway, keep it up bud.

I really like the 4th stanza, and in the last stanza, the lines:

There are others I know and like

But none make me fly like you do

 

-E.

[hey jo]

There are others I know and like

But none make me fly like you do

 

dittoing EmptySoul. these lines are great. actually, the entire poem is.

 

well done! keep on writing.
