Do you feel a darkness...a void?

I often wonder what is on the minds of others, if they feel the same
pull towards a darker reality, the breath of mortality on the nape of
our necks a constant reminder to feel everything life has to offer...I
want to know you, not in a polite social way, I want to really know you,
every dark truth, every desire... I've come to the conclusion that
everything we feel is love, every experience we crave is love,
everything deemed immoral or taboo is love... talk to me, let me know
what is really in the heart and soul of women before I leave this
existence...

I have to admit this one impressed me more that the first one I read, though that was very well ..hmm how do i put it delicately, descriptive?

I feel I need to share everything, like its the duty of the writer to bare all and be completely honest, which can be freaky cause at some point I may alienate someone because of it...so yea, I'm glad it didn't scare you away from reading others...I'm wholly human and honest about all the sides of my personality and thoughts

What stands out to me the most in this piece is that it feels very generalized at the start -- like, you want to know what everyone is feeling ("the mind of others"), and if it's the same as what you feel -- but at the end you specify wondering about women. I wasn't expecting it to go there, exactly, not that that's a bad thing. Interesting twist. Definitely.

Hi Katrina, thank you for reading and commenting. I definitely am more interested in the minds of women, being a man I have a stronger grasp of my genders mind, but I am interested in other males perspectives as well. It's a moment of desire and fervor I suppose, and I see women in a very reverent way, idolatry, so I seek to know your passionate mind.

A very interesting write. It is always the curious nature of a writer to want to know what mystery lies behind another's mind. :) Wonderful poem. Thank you for sharing

Feelings it is incredible to say the least..Well penned

[MsJewel]

Oh yes..the mystery of not knowing and the longing to know every deep hidden secret...
"everything deemed immoral or taboo is love" - something I've never thought about, but find quite thought provoking. I like the honesty of your words.

This is a very real poem.. I often wonder what is on the minds of others, as well... what is their dark, guilty secret? Minds are a Mystery :)

Thank you for sharing this beauty.

Thank you Eliza Mae, I appreciate you and that we think similar. I am an open book, I believe it is our purpose as writers to be absolutely honest, so if you ever have a question, or want to share I am always up for bare bones real discussions/admissions.
