I caught you red handed from the blood of my heart.
And now this relationship is falling apart.
You think you can explain? Well don't even start.
Loving you is easy. But hating you is hard.
You're crying color. That's all I can see.
You're crying color. This ain't about me.
Youre crying color. Tears run down your face.
You're crying color and I need my space.
A fountain of lies is streaming down your eyes.
I'm done with the "I love you's". All there's left are "goodbyes".
I found out those secrets you've tried to hide.
And baby, loving you.....is suicide.
You're crying color. A colorful sea.
You're crying color. It's not meant to be.
Youre crying color. Its not helping your case.
You're crying color and I need my space.
You're crying color and dying your brown eyes blue.
But the problem is, I don't think you have a clue.
How bad it is between me and you.
It's not enough for me to say that we're through.
But you did something you can't undo.
And now you're crying you're sorry. Sorry won't do.
You're crying color, a shade of red.
The scarlet letter upon your chest.
The color that once stood for love
Is now the color that I detest.
Somewhere beyond waking, Just out of touch, I see you smiling, Just as always. You always reminded me, Of warm summer nights, Standing on the shore, Waiting for the stars to fall. Silver moonlight in your hair, Eyes that shimmer like jewels, How often I've wondered, How your blood might taste. I will hold you now, Even as I push you away, For you are an angel, And I have Fallen. I cannot reveal my secrets, Though you beg for explanation, My Darling, you could not love me, If you knew the dark curse I hide. Daylight approaches and you cry, For now it is that I take my leave, Not before a kiss sweet as crimson rain, Heaven forbid it. I have Fallen.

Very nice poem. Are you speaking from an experience that you have had or is it something that came to you???
Beautifully written.
Leaves one feeling breathless.
For anyone who reads my poems please do not copy them or use them anywhere else without permission thanks.
Eloquently expressed. You have a gift for words.
It was a something that happened to me and i wrote it out.
Forbidden love would be the right title but, its your masterpiece still very beautiful indeed. It touchs this ol` stone cold heart of mine.
very good job
have a way in expressing yourself so others can feel what you felt writing it
I'm reminded of a Tale of Two Cities..."It is better to have loved and lost than to not have loved at all." In reading this, it seems you do not give yourself enough credit in having the ability to keep the delightful and good things in your life that you cherish most. It is the judgement of those we love that we deeply fear simply because the rejection sends us spiraling farther away from the light of acceptance and selfless love. I believe that neither is accesible without tha same fear and pain...selflessness in and of itself is a rare creature. There's most always a bargaining chip on the table.
Just my meandering thoughts..:) I liked this one, but I would have entitled it The Fallen. You have a sweet and romantic heart under all of that dominant exterior, I look forward to reading more.
Later Gator "
Very romantic, makes me melt. hehe
