No cure for love.

Sometime looking back. The bad days don't seem so bad.

                  No cure for Love.

In the tar pits of blasphemy and disappointment.
I tried to forget a woman face and green eyes.
Tries to forget those long legs.
I tries to erode the memory her beautiful body.


Leonard Cohen is playing "No cure for love."
I sat alone in the back of a Texas dance hall.


The restrains of grief and my frigid heart render me

merciless and cold.

I dance on nails now.

Pain became an pleasure.
Allowing a trace of emotion to appear rarely.


I was filled with the cancer of disappointment.
Left hopeless.
Now the twilight deepen.


I sat on the sideline of hopelessness.
Waiting for one damn reason to keep going forward.


Sensuous and beautiful lady whisper.
Sweet and spiritual words.



"My Poet.
Rest with me my love.
Let's find a secret hostel.
Where two can unite against the world."


Her perfume intoxicate my senses.
My emotions and desires begin to maneuver.
Her sweet smell of lilies began to awake
my impoverish heart.


She takes me to the dance floor.
We do a Texas two-step.
Slow and easy.


Her sweet voice whispers to me.
"I'm here.
I have tasted pain.
Swam in the misery of disappointment."


"Tonight we must redeem our heart and soul."


She gave me a soft gentle kiss.
Laid her head into my chest.
She looks into my eyes.
Her blue eyes  kind and gentle.
Even the un-lucky can find love.
She told me.


"We must create a bridge.
Based on the real things that are important.
Make only true promises.
We expect to accomplish."


We sat by the Austin river.
The Texas sun was appearing from the east.


A broken man and a lady who lost her wings.


Today we begin a new dance.
In the paradise of love and emotion.


The sweet woman told me.
"We must live through hell.
To know love."


I brought her close.
I whispered "thank you."
I told her "love takes time."


I kissed her sweet lips.
Brought her close to me.


I whispered.
"We must strive to be kind and
Maybe the splendor of love.
Will come back."


"Into our heart and soul? "

Gorgeous poem. Just don't forget to be consistent with your tenses (e.g. in the first stanza "I tries to erode the memory (of) her beautiful body" - "I tries", would better as "I tried...") Just minor grammatical errors, otherwise great write. Keep it up.

This write conveys a lot of emotions at once, and gives a splendid result of masochism at first, and hope of love afterwards, depicted in these wonderful lines:
"I dance on nails now.
Pain became an pleasure."
and
"Today we begin a new dance.
In the paradise of love and emotion."
And these lines are true in its most purest sense:
"We must live through hell.
To know love."
I also love the structure, and I know I said that earlier for 'Worn and torn love', but this look like a script for a short movie, and in this, your readers can see images of what you narrate and we feel what you want us to feel through your words.
You have a very creative mind and build up a lot of imageries.
Awesome write.

"The cancer of disappointment"

I love that line. I've never quite viewed the feeling of disappointment in that light but now having done so, it's actually pretty dead on. Great piece!

"My Poet.
Rest with me my love.
Let's find a secret hostel.
Where two can unite against the world."

This had me. I wanted to write a story around this specifically. I loved it. Beautifully written.

"We must live through hell.
To know love."

"love takes time."

My favourite lines. Thank you, I enjoyed your writing, the structure is very original, imo. :) Poem has some grammatical errors, but they do not disturb and they were already pointed out. What else can I say? I love your style :)

Sensual poem that stirs the emotions and ones memory of lost love. Sometimes we do learn to love by losing. Beautiful poem.

[Linear]

Moving stuff, when love is lost, it often returns in another form, some errors in grammar, we all make them, it did'nt distract from a very beautiful poem

[MissWordSmith]

Who is this mystery woman who seems to have stolen your heart so long ago? You did love her very much, didn't you? Don't you!
i was blown away as I read. your words just captured me and made me want to read more.
When i read your work I'm always reminded of a deeper kind of love that isn't seen so often today. No, we're in the bella-edward era, aren't we? :P
