Into My Forbidden Place

Into My Forbidden Place

A Poem by The Mad Prophet
"

This is the only time I may admit I need someone. I have never dated, never loved, but I am starting to reconsider. This is a journey into something way too alien for me.

"

 

Come with me, as I hold your hand
Let me drag you into my forbidden place
Into my inner mindscape
A place where the Earth meets the Moon
A land only assessable through me
As I am the point were
The Earth meets the Moon
 
This is a realm of beauty and magic
But all your magic is more beautiful
 
I bring you closer to me
As we fall into a well of golden light
Let it coarse through us both
And let the light in us be one
 
My realm is a secret place
Where I share with no one
So to you, I hold the highest trust
For my heart can’t bear much more
 
This is a realm of pain and torment
But all your light will sooth me
 
I mesh all my pain here
With hope for the one who can remove it
Someone with the inner light
To destroy me
 
As I am still darkness
Reincarnation of the spirit is over due
And all though I fear you getting close
I know your light is stronger then my will
 
This is a realm of darkness and emptiness
But your will is so much stronger
 
I know you can break my darkness
You hold the only key in my heart
You hold the only candle in your soul
That is why I want to touch you
 
I know my fears will not let that be
I know for fact, I am a coward
And if I don’t dissolve
I will become more then darkness
 
This is a realm of dark desires
But I can’t stand seeing you hurt
 
I am more afraid of your pain
Then the pain I had to endure
In hope to see you happy
Would consume my very essence
 
I desire your happiness
I wouldn’t wish for anything more
But I know I can’t bring it to you
For I have never learned
 
This is a realm of paradox
And I know you are the solution
 
Let me close your mind
And remove all the anchors of thought
Let me pierce your mindscape
Let me be in your dreamscape
I just want to be, near you…

You say this is a journey into an alien land for you... that you have never loved. These words feel to me like they are written by one who has loved for ages but never revealed it to the object of their obsession...

I thought while reading this that perhaps you were taking the reader on a journey...

"Come with me, as I hold your hand, Let me drag you into my forbidden place"

I suppose that could be the case... but the words don't seem to be from a person who has never loved, only one who has never had their desire quenched by drinking the soothing wine from the lips of their beloved... "This is a realm of paradox And I know you are the solution" The angst of love and longing make this all the more intoxicating.

I love this...it sounds vampiric:). Your words are dark, raw, cold, yet behind it
all there is a tenderness to be understood, loved. AD

One thing though as an after thought...do you have to drag her? Can't she walk in willingly with a heart full of love? Ha ha! Take care!

This poem touched me especially deeply. It means something to me as it speaks for someone I love with all my heart. Hmmm, It's going in my read list for sure. I love it. You did well here. Blessings! I hope you find the one who is worthy of this.

I love how you used the colors and also the off set of black words smaller then the rest, it sets the poem off, I loved it.

You say you have never loved, yet this poem to me sounds like someone who has thought about love for a long time. That has relished and imagined the feeling of a lover, of your heart being whole with love and happiness. You may have never LOVED persay, but in this poem it seems like you have thought about love for a long time.

This poem touched me, and it took me to "The Forbidden Place" it took me on a journey. I adore this poem, it is awesome and very well written. You did an amazing job.

This was amazing. Simply amazing. The need, the fear, the wanting, the unsurety...it's all in there. Wonderful poem!

This is great. It works very well to have the thought lines off-set from the rest of the poem. It is very beautiful but haunting and sad too. I will have to read this again and again. Thanks for sharing it.

Wow. Very powerful.

I love this and rejoice in what I see as a new beginning.
A conscious effort to explore and embrace new possibilities.
Very passionate, deep honest and revealing. A true show of strength.

Well done you... amazing ;)
