Crimson Truths

Crimson Truths

A Poem by Emily Dickinson Jr.
"

I based this poem off the anime inuyasha. It's about a cold, cruel man finding out he loves a woman but not untill it is far to late

"

Rose, rose, rose

Crimson drops they fall

 

You see perfection

 

It hates and kills me

But I'll stay standing

 

I'll scream at it

No fear with a knife

And a claw at my throat

 

You'll look in my eye

You'll never admit it

But you're in love

 

You want to taint snow

With a lowly creature

 

So you sneer

You lash at me

Your image disapears

 

You are a lord

You're not modest at least

 

But when you see me sob

 

For the first time

Privy to my broken heart

You can't help but want a piece

 

As I lay broken

In puddles of blood

You see my porcelein face

And your permanent sneer

Is erased

 

Somehow I've changed

Yet I've stayed the same

Fair skin, rainbow eyes

Ruby lips

 

You've never known before

 

Big suprise

As I lay quite

I take my dying breath

 

You ogle

What your foolish

Mind, could never see

That your insightful heart

Could mournfully

Always see

 

As I whisper

" My prince, this is me."

 

So as you cry

for the very first time

Your frozen heart dies

 

And you see the monster you are

As you cry under those cruel unfeeling

Stars

 

When you look into

Your own

Amber eyes, only

Truly saw

Reflected in my

Crimson pond

thanx so much :-) im glad you think so.
Almost saying "I told you so," in a beatifully poetic way. This was a journey through swaying branches and opaque glass only revealing itself to those who truly believe and understand. Very nicely done.

thats exaclty the idea! lol
Im glad you could appreciate how I expressed the sentiment
It's like Beauty and the Beast personified and turned inside out. I like the places you took me with your vivid descriptions, love this part the absolute best....

'want to taint snow
With a lowly creature'

I like that part a lot 2! when I read it aloud I put a lot of sas and irony into that part lol
Indeed. I believe you have nailed it on this one. While it may be geared towards love, it is anything but cliché. I was draw into this poem through your use of imagery. You showed the reader the emotions, instead of telling them...which is what every poet should do. Well done.

Lol well good luck!! :-)
This read to me like a fairytale but a lamentable one at that. Although in a way a truth shone through it in the form of an enlightenment. Ah the myth of love.......

It really makes sense that it came across as a fairytale! This is because it was based off a japane.. read more
