Lust

Lust

A Poem by Matthew
"

Lust is deadly, so is hate.

"
Coming back to full circle
Rendered whole from the start
Forming stops, into the whole
Red light glows from the hollow shell
Made wanted, now troubled from the mark


Marooned again
Laying down on the hollowed sand
Marooned again
They took you to the holy land


Red light glows now from the land across the sea
Red light glows down from the shore
I remember the time we would all laugh
Red light forms around this evil lair
Red light forms around this fake prosparity
I remember the time we would all smile


Marooned again
Forgotten in time
Marooned again
They took you from me


Lust after everything that will make mine
Lust after everything that will complete your broken soul
I liked the way you would cry in my arms
Lust after hate that you think will make you true
Lust after death that you think will make you real
I liked the way you would embrace me in your arms


Marooned again
Here we are facing each other
Marooned again
Here we are hating one another


I liked the way we would look into each others eyes
I remember the time we would lay next to one another
I would give anything to see that happy sparkle in your eye
I would give anything to make you mine


Coming back to full circle
Lust is now your only thought
Returned now to become whole
You think that death will solve your every problem
You think death will save your life


I can’t make you mine
You’re not real
And I can’t make you real
You died a long time ago
You aren’t ever coming back


I liked the way we would hold each other
I liked the way you would stare into my eyes
I’d give anything to see you now
Just not like this

"You think death will save your life" best line. I really liked this, I can picture almost all of it in my head. I liked the format you used, the red and then lust. You stated the past and then the present in a clear way. I can see the thoughts you presented well. I like this kid.
