Dark Paradise

Inspired by Lana Del Rey... xo

My melancholy baby

Woven siren skin of starlight

Do you dream of restless suns?

 

Lips that can kill, kill

Jasmine blue your firelight

Hues of colored rain firing guns?

 

Sing, sweet Lolita, sing

Storms unleash your tones tonight

Dark paradise seducing countless sons?

 

 

 

Author's Note

"Lick me up and take me like a vitamin
'Cause my body's sweet like sugar venom, oh yeah
Baby love me cause I'm playing on the radio
(How do you like me now?)"
- Lana Del Rey (Radio)

First of all, GREAT videos and quotes on your profile page (especially the quote of Gibran...stellar). This write is very brief, but I believe it to be the perfect length for its message. Had you gone on and extended it the power contained in the words would probably have been diluted. Great wordplay and rhythm. take care...dan

A amazing poem. I'm a big Lana Del Rey fan. You gave life and strength with your strong words and description. When "Sing, sweet Lolita, sing". Few men have a fair chance. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.

I really appreciate works that begs more than your cheap attention but really makes you think and evaluate the piece as a whole and line by line . I feel like i could spend hours working though this. Bravo
