Damsel in denial

by Iola   Jun 23, 2008


A reason; explicitly orchestrated behind my every choice
This season; designed to free my long suppressed voice
Our moments; purposefully written down by a golden pen
It's an atonement; living proof of the existence of great men

Two bodies; knotted together for a selected period of time
No folly; enjoying every second of what will never be mine
Denying; the existence of every spark that we birth
Yet trying; to stay standing in awe at what this is worth

Damsel; no longer do I belong to the heart of one man
Canceled the contract that irked me, I knew I can
An eruption; of the loner that I was meant to be for now
This suction; when you devour me and then I ask how

This heart; my greatest treasure safely buried in my chest
Not hard; rather use the wisdom of a mind that knows best
Not now; don't take me when I need to be free and alone
I bow; to those who let me be the damsel I have always known

This time; I need to feel what one become when not taken
All fine; when you stir my soul for it is not yet shaken
A journey; the path ahead may be steep but worth climbing
Don't burn me; just walk with me toward better timing

    I must say I really enjoyed this poem. I liked the flow, and I like your structure... you just a different way of expressing yourself and I liked it... It was different and nice.. I liked the idea of being a damsel and admitting to things. Good job!

    This time; I need to feel what one become when not taken
