So poetically inadequate.
Stiff fingers scrawl words,
Hearts race and chillbumps crawl,
No warmth on the soul.
No dreams, you took them all.
I’m picturing your smile
Flirting across your lips.
Are you thinking of me?
Or is she on your mind,
Your half-friend,
Ex-girlfriend, first love?
And I thought you’d sweep me
Off my feet, how wrong could I be.
No furtive smiles, no secrets
In your eyes?
You really have nothing to hide?
Why don’t I believe you.
It’s not like you’ve never lied.
My body is cold, lacking outer heat,
But if you were nearby,
You could be keeping me warm.
Roses wilt and fade,
Need I carry on this tirade?
Because diamonds always sparkle,
But I always seem to fade
Into black, into the back.
Has the ground never shook
Beneath your feet?
Would I be the first
To notice the brewing tempest?
Do you want me to be a
Beguiling temptress? Because
Being me does not seem to be
Attention grabbing.
And you think I’ve got
A heart made of stone,
But you’re so wrong, so blind,
And you’ve crossed a line.
So no more games, give me
Something more, hold me in
Your arms, not letting go.
Warm up my frozen skin,
Help me move again.
Kiss my lips, let me taste
What causes my heart to race.

I found you by accident, but maybe it wasn't an accident!
I love your poetry. There is something about it that is not quite dark enough, but enough to keep me interested. I read back over some more posts that you have done, and you certainly have some talent there! Just keep on writing, and don't give up.
I read about your vents...we all do that! And, it's your blog to do as you like, just don't give up...I'm your newest follower so I'll see if I can get others over to take a look at your blog.
I didn't notice if you blogged often, but as your poem is called "Valentine's Day" I am presuming that you don't write that often, but then, I never or hardly ever check dates! Don't worry about it, I know some people who may only write once a week!
It is all up to you. I know that I like to write everyday, but that is just me and the stuff that goes on inside my head!
I quite often just find a picture and write around that or anything else that gives me inspiration.
So, just keep tapping away and good luck!
Big Hugs & keep on writing!
Alice;
Thanks so much, very encouraging, yeah I found your blog off someone elses and I'm like wow, she's awesome. But yeah, thanks for the encouraging comments. Normally I do blog a lot, but lately i've been bogged down by school.
But I'm gonna keep writing, got some more stuff going on in my head, thanks
Hugs accepted and returned, Can't wait to read more of your work
