Beautiful Laceration
Your inner beauty arches above me,
A vast, starless expanse
Created in agony and ecstasy.
The sweet in bittersweet -
The bitter in bittersweet;
Pain's beguiling mistress.
You are Venus' lost relic,
But dead skin fills your grooves
And disguises your texture.
How can I restore you?
My heart hurts for you, but
Your heart bleeds for you.
Crimson streams flow below
Your once seamless surface,
Longing to burst into fame, and
When the dark skies part
to reveal your sighing spirit
And struggling soul,
The red rain paints pretty pictures.
Don't you see that you are already art
Displayed on a pedestal in my heart?
A vast, starless expanse
Created in agony and ecstasy.
The sweet in bittersweet -
The bitter in bittersweet;
Pain's beguiling mistress.
You are Venus' lost relic,
But dead skin fills your grooves
And disguises your texture.
How can I restore you?
My heart hurts for you, but
Your heart bleeds for you.
Crimson streams flow below
Your once seamless surface,
Longing to burst into fame, and
When the dark skies part
to reveal your sighing spirit
And struggling soul,
The red rain paints pretty pictures.
Don't you see that you are already art
Displayed on a pedestal in my heart?

that was holy crap good.
dark and excellent.
let's have some wishful thinking and consolidate a pile of poems someday by amateur artists such as you and i and get it published and earn a bit of money off the lucrative contract rights. or something.
man rose, i love that poem, its so deep and well written, its as if each word was hand-picked after alot of thought. You are one of the best writers I know.
Rose, i have to say that if this ever gets published or anything like that, u owe me royalties cuz i know it's about me and since i was yur inspiration for this marvellous piece, i should get a slice of the money cake!... oohhhhh, let's say something along the lines of 65% of the revenues! lol. jk! u rock!
luv mandy!
