Touch me
Don't touch me
Tease me
Don't please me
Conceal me
Appeal to me
Refresh me
Restrain me
Teach me
Can't reach me
Forgive me
Deceive me
Adorn me
Don't scorn me
Forever you'll mourn me
Please love me
Please hate me
Please god, don't engage me
Awaken me
Forsaken you
Forgive me for taking you
Take your cut
Relieve your soul
Remove my heart
And reach my goal
Death is quick
We stand aghast
But life, but love
Never a gasp

WELCOME RAAVEN ~ Thanks for a very interesting and enigmatic first poem ! So so many request in your poem ~ some of which are contradictory. We all want our minds and senses stimulated by those who cross our paths ~ Touched ~ Teased ~ Refreshed ~ Taught ~ etc BUT perhaps not to be deceived ~ scorned ~ hated ? I find as I go through life that i am also faced with all these (sometimes conflicting) responses ! Thanks for caring & sharing ~ BRIAN (UK)
Thanks so much! That was actually my inspiration for this poem, the uncertainty of my life at this point in time. This piece is about confusion and contradiction for me, all the way.
I like the way this reads in an effortless way. The contradictions. Love me. Hate me. Reminds me of how often I've been puzzled by the opposite sex. Welcome.
I love this so much, it truly is beautiful.
Thanks everybody!
It speaks to the duality of humanity, or at least my own. The constant contradiction of your wants and desires, and the frustration in not being able to truly express yourself or said desires. Or maybe im reading my own meaning into this, either way i enjoyed it and it made me feel a little less alone in life. So thank you.
Even if you were reading your own meaning into it, I'd be glad that you were. I love doing that personally with song lyrics and such, I love to identify with things, so I'm glad to have written something someone else can relate to. After reading your poem Courting Agony, I feel that we have a similar style too, so thanks!
Thanks for taking time to read my poem, its my first since i was a kid so i appreciate that. I look forward to reading your other poems after this.
