CONTEMPT

triangle of my tongue
wrapped around your heart
for i hold you in contempt
for the shaking of my knees
my eye's are blurred
for this i can see
for your beauty has
come up on too me
whispers in the air
surrounding my ears
i hold you in contempt
for my mind is in ecstasy.
unravaling of my soul
lays at your feet
for this i hold you
in my arms of
contempt.

I agree with Andrew, very interesting.. I once loved someone so much I despised them for it. For how I reacted to them...and they didn't care.....

hi countrylady
that is one of the most painful things in life too give all your soul all of you to one and being left out in the cold.. i know that is the same i gave my everything too my ex wife and she in turn left me in the cold for she was cold. it took me years to get over that and in some ways it still affects me in the way i have surrounded my heart with an iron gate. but that gate can be opened up but only to the right person and not just anybody cause it is just too painful. so this is what i am waiting for the right woman too open that gate.

What you are looking for is looking for you kickit.But you have to open and risk again. Coz she wont be able to see you if you dont.Let the contempt go now .You will see.
I liked your write.

Hey kickit! Just a quick moment to check in and I saw your freshly submitted poem and had to check it out!! That iron gate needs to soak in the depths of someone's love so that it rusts through and loses it's ability to protect your heart from the one that wants to make you realise how wonderful it is to be loved again! (I'm thinking that my own iron gate is failing fast!) Good to see you still 'kick-in it'!!

Let's have a root beer and watch the rust grow!!!
