Vengeful Muse

 

It seems he doesn’t care

It seems he never will

And so, my heart begins to tear

It’s beating so unreal

That it threatens not to heal

When life may seem so worthless

The feelings reoccur

An angel, oh so priceless

Yet always such a blur

It’s his smile that pulls me in

And grounds me from my flight

And when it seems my heart will mend

He’s quickly out of sight

And so, my heart grows weaker

Each time he seems to fade

I should be smart and learn my lesson

But that just gets in the way

And so, I keep on hoping

He’ll see just what he’s missing

So sure, I could love him better

So positive, I could love him right

If he’d just give me the chance

I’d hold him through the night

When his dreams begin to darken

I’d fix them with a kiss

When all seems lost

I’d gladly stick by his side

Not matter what the cost

If these wings were meant to bleed

Then that’s just what they’ll do

 Just so long as the pain

Brings me closer to you

I’d surely fall from the fantasy

And the glamour that's portrayed

With my wings so easily dispatched

I’d sooner come to terms with reality

If you were attached

Well put. Very interesting title. They say you can't judge a book by it's cover (in this case a poem) but having an amazing title sure can't hurt your chances of being judged favorably by your cover.
=D
The character seems quite stubborn, I like this. She is most set upon her way.
Kudos!

I saw the title and it caught my attention immediately, so I had to read this one. It wasn't what I expected, but it was definitely worth taking the time to read. Your rhythm was pretty spot on, the flow as one reads this aloud, comfortable. This was a well written poem.

Splendid choice of words. The poem thrilled me gave me goose bumps... I loved it. The title so devinly fit for this poem. Amazing. :D

this is good. im sure many people can relate to this =]
you want the person to care about you but they really dont seem to notice you. and every time they look your way or smile at you, you feel like things between you will get better but they dont.
good job =]

Oh, I forgot...the title is perfect too.

Great! "An Angel oh so priceless, Yet always such a blur" and "When his dreams begin to darken, I'd fix them with a kiss" and "I'd sooner come to terms with reality, if you were attached" ...All great lines. I love it.
