Paint Me Blue

by NyellMoonlight   Jul 10, 2008


There are pieces of me you'd never see:
alabaster constellations
of orchids and farewells;
Pearly clouds unfold pregnant stories
within seaweed weakness.

Paint me blue-
now, you'll let me fall.

Reveries... all those flowers obscene,
bloom, scurrilous... immoral;
honey, I do love this,
this angelic obscurity of sacrilege.
Overshadowed chambers entrapped
our carnal sentiments.

Paint me blue-
now, you'll let me die.

    "There are pieces of me you'd never see:
    alabaster constellations
    of orchids and farewells;
    Pearly clouds unfold pregnant stories
    within seaweed weakness."

    Wonderful opening, and you kept my attention the whole way through, beauitful wording that took my breath away!

    "Reveries... all those flowers obscene,
    bloom, scurrilous... immoral;
    honey, I do love this,
    this angelic obscurity of sacrilege.
    Overshadowed chambers entrapped
    our carnal sentiments."

    I love the descriptions here, and the way it is filled with so much feeling. Well expressed. Keep writing, always and forever.....

    This poem is absolutely stunning! Your word choice was wonderful. I loved the emotion in the piece.

    "Reveries... all those flowers obscene,
    bloom, scurrilous... immoral;
    honey, I do love this,"

    ^^ This particular portion of the piece really hit me. I don't know why, though. It just did.

    Altogether, this piece made me feel many different things, but that is why I enjoyed it as much as I did. It held my attention form the beginning to the end. You did a wonderful job on this.

    Five out of five.

    I don't know what it is but I love these 2 lines, they just pop out for me and stick in my head. Once again you have a great way with words, very inspiring. Great job.

    Beatiful work...I think what makes this poem flow and appeal to people so much is the rich choice of words. The repitition of the title paint me blue also has a positive impact.
    Good stuff, keep it coming!
    Take care,
