I wanted to give you the world; and I wanted you to explore it all
I wanted you to get lost in my eyes the way I did yours
I wanted you to feel that rush of inexplicable love when when our lips met or our hands touched
You brought me happiness I had no desire for, as I thought sadness was my friend
I was blind to the world and it's beauty and deaf to the beautiful melodies this earth has
You opened up my eyes to a whole world of color; when all I saw was darkness
I can now hear the beauty behind your voice and the way it sings to me as you speak
You filled the empty voids in my body with the universe you made out of me
My eyes held the stars, and my heart made up the planets
You created a garden within the poison I had injected inside of me from past lovers
Only to show me just how much more toxic you were
How your poison can not only destroy the garden you've built but make my throat burn every time someone else's lips kiss mine
And deprive me of the ability to eat
You made the stars burst in my eyes, and now all I can do is cry
I look in the mirror and all I see is darkness within my eyes, it's as if I'm now an angel who holds a demon inside
You destroyed every planet inside me, destroying that beautiful personality I had, and allowing the debris to tear me apart from the inside out.
You tore off my ears so I could never hear the angelic melodies but the voice of the devil in my head, you.
You wanted me to see how you were the best thing to happen to me and show just how much power you had over me
You wanted to make me your own sick kind of art so I can write these poems of the moral you made out of me
You wanted to imprint your name on my tongue so I'd never be able to speak of another man the way I did you
You wanted to bring me everlasting happiness to keep me blind to your wrong doings
As for even though everything burns and all there is are the demons that lurk within, I'm still in love.
You wanted nothing more but to torment me
And I just wanted to give you a love that can save you from all evil, even the devil himself.
But I was a fool to your disguise , for only the devil would do such a thing to someone so angelic

- Comment from author about the poem: This is a fragment of how I feel about the person who stole my heart. He fooled me with happiness in numerous ways as I misread the things he spoke to me. Blinded me in ways I thought were opening my vision to beautiful things. It's about a guy I fell in love with and became a slave too, for he and I both knew he had that power over me. Its about heartbreak.

Cant wait to see more. Good job
more indeed you will see!
Great write but can I suggest a larger font? A little hard to see. But I hope you find someone that treats you better,
I'm sorry about that, but thank you so much
WELCOME ANGEL ~ Thanks for your first and very personal poem. It is very well penned ~ but such a tragic story. It is always tragic when we have something (or someone) taken away from us and our hopes are dashed ~ WHEN THAT SOMETHING ~ is someone we loved and trusted it is much much worse. MEN get let down by LADIES (sometimes) so I can empathise ! I trust writing this very poignant poem was cathartic ~ Thinking of you ~ Yours BRIAN
Thank you so much, i love writing, it really helps me with all the emotions i feel. And yes it is a very terrible thing that happens to people. Its a shame it happened to me, but in the end its only what makes me stronger.
Love it looking forward to reading more
