The Contract

Its the

final day

judgement day

Standing at the

pearly gates

 

St. Peter

admiting those

into heven

or casting them

to darkness

 

When it is my

turn

i walk over and am

suddenly stilled

agonizing pain

 

engulfs me

he over powers my soul

i made a contract with

the devil

for the one

I love

 

I made a deal

to give him all my love

signed the contract

with ruby red blood

and then it was so

 

He fell in love

with me

then he

used me

beat me

 

I asked the

devil to take

this pain away

he smirked

 

you have to

kill him

tears formed

i cant do it

 

Next day

i buy a gun

when he is sleeping i point

it to him

overcome with sadness

 

I turned the gun around

whispered

i love you

and pulled the trigger

 

I am in a contract

the contract

of love

A few months ago i was reading about some contracts and you missed here to write to the point, i meant this;s great but it needed to edit some more, if as a reader i give you my review then it's a great and an amazing write but as a unknown or as a business man i give you then this write needs some edition.
otherwise the whole write's good and i'm seeing that you all idea's're well visualized and well penned by you and i appreciated this a lot.

feels like a great film noir or dark love song...really dig it.

That was gorgeous..... Some of the stanzas were "specifically" exciting to me, and that's just because of the way I think!! This is not a simple poem with all its levels of love, lust, and faith. The devil had it made, and knew not of what human dedication you provided for him, and that ripped at me..... thinking you had the chance to enter the Pearly Gates without the distraction of this contract. It is beautiful to see how well you have crafted this poem to allow for us to TRY and imagine how much love means to you!! You had three very tough topics that get written about, and you did an awesome job at it! Beautiful Maria. xoxo -Mark

This is beautiful.people should know love is like a contract,one party benefits more than the other and one party always uses the other to satisfy his/her needs.Just like the business contracts.There is no fair contract in this world that's why most of us end up getting hurt.

Beautiful theme.

A very good poem. Some contracts lead us to hell more then paradise. I like the flow of the poem and the strong ending. Some wisdom to be learn in the poem. Make a deal with the Devil. He never lose. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.

Very nice attention to meter. Mostly iambic, varying between dimeter and trimeter. Gives it a very serious cadence without sounding dated. Beautifully worded as well. Great job!
