My Seven Deadly

Letting go of what I once was,
Is harder than losing you.
Dreaming of sleeping with a stranger,
Seem's comforting yet cruel.


I loved you once but the feeling has passed,
I lie to myself I still love this man,
I toss and turn theres no peace to my sleep.
Endless cycle I get only what I have.


Your company unfamiliar,
Your touch indiscreet,
No longer feeling comfort,
Discomfort I now greet.


Infectious you are,
Like that of a disease,
I can't seem to get rid of you,
My mind and body unease.


Self-worth on my side,
It no longer exists,
Your arrogance is feeding me,
Naive, I am, I insist.


You're not affraid,
No, Not affraid to be alone,
I long to be okay with it,
I wish we felt as one.


It's starting to get under my skin,
It's really eating me inside out,
I can't stand the sight of your face,
I want to rip your tounge from your throat through your mouth.

i'm not sure how i feel about this poem... it's very well written and interesting to read, but it was, to me, slightly incomprehensible. i got the lust stanza, and the anger stanza was amazing, but in between those two, they all seemed like good poetry with random words at the bottom. i really like the concept, but i think you could do a better job making each stanza relate to the sin it's referring to.
or you could just leave off the identifying word at the bottom of each stanza and let people figure it out...
either way, in most of the stanzas the identifying word seemed sort of incongruous with the rest of it.
but i did like it. i really did. i'm just trying to give constructive criticism. : ]

this was really good and cool. its interesting to know that one relationship could bring out all 7 of the deadly sins in one person

Great interpretation of your seven deadly sins. I love how you made it all surround this guy, there should be an eigth sin though, obsession. I think I am definitely going to like your works. So wonderfully dark and screwed up. I was attracted to your profile by your name. My profile seems so sweet and normal but don't let that fool you. Please take a look at my book- Diary of a Psychopath: Isabelle's story. I think you'll like her darkness and her anti-hero stereotype. Anyways, I'm off to read more of your work as it intrigues me, someone who is tortured, angry, and looking for an audience. Good write!!
