My Blood For Your Love

[Yuki]

Note: This is a freestyle poem which was originally meant to be a song.

Woke up in the morning
Your image fades into my memory
Your kiss still haunts me
This bed is cold without you

You light me up in flames
I'm burning, I'm burning
You turned my heart into ashes
My body is charred and beyond recognition

Black roses growing like weeds
These four walls are closing in on me
I can't breathe
Rescue me my love

Words are like swords
It stabs my heart clean
Your lips, a poisoned harlequin
You have broken my will

It's hard to breathe
In this place so cold, so ruthless
I want to live with you
I'll die just for you

My blood, my heart, my soul
Is all yours my love
But you chose lust over love
How could I survive?

The silhouette of you
Hangs on me like a noose
Your image strangles me
Until I breathed my last

This blade runs through my wrist
My blood, a symbol of my love
The darkness is closing in on us
Hold my hand dear, we'll overcome

Let's jump over our dreams and fears
Drink my blood dear
Immortality is within reach
My death won't be in vain

Black roses growing like weeds
These four walls are closing in on me
I can't breathe
Rescue me my love

You light me up in flames
I'm burning, I'm burning
You turned my heart into ashes
My body is charred and beyond recognition

My blood for your love
My blood for you love
My...blood...for your...love

Thats pretty good mile: Do you write for fun, like when you randomly think of something, or do you work on it day in day out?

[Yuki]

I mostly do it for fun.

Since there are several of our community of posters who seem good at the poetic style
how about trying out HAIKUs 俳句, poem of 5-7-5 syllables
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haiku
English surely applies much better since it has lots of short one syllable words

Here is an example: (note that one syllable is missing in the middle verse)

inazuma no lend me your arms,

kaina wo karan fast as thunderbolts,

kusamakura for a pillow on my journey.

~ "I can't tell," he said.
"Why must you know my secret?"
~ "I want to know you."

"私が言うことができない、" と彼は言った
"なぜあなたは私の秘密を知っている必要があります？"
"私はあなたを知ってほしい"

[Musiq]

This one I found on a site that does Haikus in French

Au coeur d'un haïku
Mon stylo vole mes mots
Retient son encre

In the haiku's midst
My pen steals the words from me
And holds back its ink
