Barbwire love

Sometimes you can't help yourself

　

                                     Barbwire love

 

They told me to run,

Hide away from your hypnotic lure,

Like a magnet you pull me,

Away from every logical thought,

The sound of your voice whispering my name,

Ushers me into the arms of insanity.

 

We clash like fire and ice,

Every heated word effective foreplay,

Your touch it sears and runs deep,

Till you are like a fever raging in my blood,

I would drain my veins,

If it would cure my affliction.

 

I am everything you want,

But nothing you need,

You are my weakness and as the pendulum swings,

I bring you to your knees,

Wrong or right,right or wrong

Together,both or neither.

 

You have etched your name,

Across my heart, my soul,my psyche.

And claimed me as yours,

Branded for eternity ,

Imprisoned by our barbed wire love,

Felled by its double edged sword.

Forbidden love is the strongest I think. We want what we can't have and what isnt good for us. This poems leads you into that temptation...the heat is powerful. Love the title too. ;-)

[Vidya Bacchus]

Thank you so very much Red :)

love can hurt even when it feels good...i really like the lines ..

"i am everything you want/ but nothing you need"

sure does seem that way sometimes..but even as we clash, we etch ourselves into each other's heart.

every sting leaves some of the honey

[Vidya Bacchus]

Thank you Jacob.Instead of running from the fire we run towards it :)

You're becoming bolder with each new piece, V. I love the energy in this and am a huge fan of the title. Barbwire love seems to be the most addictive, but the worst to handle emotionally. I feel the weakness and the submission in your passionate words. You have a true gift with the pen.

My favorite:
I would drain my veins,
If it would cure my affliction.

[Vidya Bacchus]
