POEM OF THE SHADOW GIRL
When you speak to me,
I am like the leaf that gathers rainwater--
You are the bloom.
When you need me,
I am like the pillow someone lays her head upon--
You are the dream.
When you touch me,
I am like the cake someone steals some frosting from--
I exist for your desire.
When you are angry with me,
I am like the dented pail forgotten on the lawn--
I hold only emptiness.
And when you smile at me,
I am like a champagne geyser, I bubble and shine--
You are the midnight
You are the one I
Know can never be mine.
Aw!
Yeah, one of scads of poems I've written for someone I love dearly.
Thanks for reading!

Thank you for reading and for the kind words, Leiandra. :) :) :)
Stealth, you don't need kind words from anyone but editors of poetry journals!! You're poems are really excellent and should be collected in a book!
So many "poets" miss the intensity that lyric means. You get that.
Your poems are like perfect 17th century minatures worn as lockets: beautiful, powerful and such wonderful art. I would imagine people would be surprised how much you actually put into the writing to come out with the pieces you do.
Thank you.

Nice poem. I like it.
Thanks, I think!!? :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
Never been the subject of a limerick before and have always thought the subjects of those were somewhat less-dignified than "Goddesses of Winter!" >:D
What the hey, I like it anyhow. :)

Thank you Ma'am.
You are welcome, but you don't need to call me, "Ma'am."
*sigh* I'm not sure I like having a reputation as a Domme. I am a switch, and as time goes on Ell's and my relationship has levelled a lot. I think I'd rather just be plain old Lisbeth.
