Dangerous Words

Dangerous Words

A Poem by Awaken the Sleepwalker

The girl on the African Safari,
Who then sees a hungry pack of lions,
jumps and waves, saying ,"here kitty, kitty"

The girl visiting the alligators,
At the farm with no fences and deep ponds,
screaming, "Come and get me alligator!"

The girl always wandering the school halls,
Boy meets girl and girl falls deeply in love
And then she trusts him and says, "I love you."

The girl that has a habit for self pain,
What has always seemed so, so innocent,
A nasty habit of dangerous words

Author's Note

Awaken the Sleepwalker
So, after reading some of the reviews I though it would be a good idea to explain a few things.
I wrote this poem after a really hard breakup about a year ago. I went through a time where I thought "I love you" can be the most dangerous words out there. You leave yourself vulnerable at that point, so easy to get hurt. So "I love you" can be as dangerous and any invitation for physical harm by a wild animal.

It's kinda random...very random. =/

I actually thought this was pretty good. The only problem I could find was that you misspelled "wandering" as "wondering" (I was confused for a minute there), but other than that, there were no mistakes. Good job!

I didn't quite get the message you were tying to convey...

It's kind of random for my taste, but practice makes perfection. Keep working hard!
