Love habit to break

Just when I think it's done

I've made that clean break from my favourite dirty habit 

 the devil makes me think again.

 

a flicker of a memory so hot hard and sweet 

the trigger for a fall, a relapse repeat

the dirt seems softer and concrete less hard 

the touch of you driving my senses mad.

 

A warm whisper floating on a windy whirl

a look, a smile, a tiny gesture so sweet

washes madness over me 

i am incomplete.

 

a hunger grows from the light yearning

your soul speaks the language of mine 

words with us are obsolete 

it all happens with that one craving

a longing so raw there's no way of saving

i wait for the doomsday madness 

when we can be whole again.

 

I never wanted to say hello

never dreamed of a real goodbye 

the devil made me do it 

and I still stare in wonder, so lost in you 

why? Why? Why?

Dirt isn't always bad if you

Dirt isn't always bad if you consider the phrase "dirt cheap". Did you know that the average person will eat a pound of dirt during their lifetime? 

 

Sometimes I get to thinking about how god damn good I am, Ssmoothis...ya know? And on very rare occasion, I will be like.."Man...I wanna be BAD..." And I'll be bad. And I'll like it, and even be happy and proud that I'm human. It's god damn ok. ♡peace♡


...and he asked her, "do you write poetry? Because I feel as if I am the ink that flows from your quill."

"No", she replied, "but I have experienced it. "

Dirty in someone's eyes

Dirty in someone's eyes regardless dear night light but love could never be dirty in my heart. Betrayal is though. He nice the conflict, and the beauty of pain which forces us to examine things very closely, I too don't mind being damn good at being bad for a reason or two. Some valid others not I let my hair down and the wind frolick amongst my curls down there ;) lolL love n hugss 


Don't let any one shake your dream stars from your eyes, lest your soul Come away with them! -SS

Scraping the poets heart and bleeding words REspected SS?? You ARE a poet(in the real sense of it) I don't really understand ANYTHING about poetry (being 100% honest) I just try to write some words.If they fall into some pattern some say its good.You,and most others on this site are accomplished poets.Sometimes I put in undue unwarranted comments.I'll try to keep my dirty mouth shut.Thanx for your time if you read this.Else, in any case, I often while away time on this site.Now I'm off to "money earning work" Bye.
