The Kill

The Kill

A Poem by Zero_Edge88

I have feelings for you,
but the moment I start describing them 
I want you to just close your eyes.
No peeking.

For what I am about to tell you...you will
drown, immolate and crumble before my work.

I'll start with your irises, squeezing them...
don't scream! 
It'll only be a few minutes till they stop...
cause I know you won't need them! 
There...blind you are in there! 
It's just ever since I laid my eyes upon you 
all I could do was not stop thinking how much 
I wanted to be with you. 
I couldn't stop those eyes from wondering anymore
so instead I took it upon myself to keep your eyes for me.

but really...

All I see when I see you,
An ocean, the snow and the space.
Crystallizing they form so lavishly when they weep.
A weeping I forget when I stop looking at you as well as 
when we are together dare I say, "It hurts staring this forbidden beauty."
The sky is the limit for those who seek out what is in our house but
when I stare at you deeper even the cosmos has me detached 
from where I am standing. 
A singularity effect you create when I stare at them as the light 
can't even escape so... zipped.
For the blood you drip when I see you hurt I feel the ocean
roar in maelstroms because your veins that course so deeply 
they stop.

Now let me douse you. 
I want to see the beautiful green-flame you were blazing so 
continuously in this room.
There I can't even begin to tell you how much your flesh 
means to me all crisp and crunched as 
you are but an empty shell!
Such impurity must be cleansed off immediately!

sighs

But really dear, you were burning for me when you told me
your heart was beating when I would leave you.
It was the sensual touch that when we felt for each other
when we began dancing in that burning dance floor. 
It was so sweet like two embers burning brightly in the 
coldest of nights it kept us warm you said...
our souls did because there it was so beautiful.

Break my heart, walk away for all I care!
I don't know about you anymore. 
I want no more of you! 
I don't want to be cared!
You're all that I despise now so just...

"shut up!"

"I hate when my eyes are closed, forget the no peeking part!
I love you and I know what you are saying.
I killed you. Admit it. 
For whatever look I gave you, it was a direct hit.
For every time we touched, it was the furthest from heaven
and closest to hell. 
As for this part I want you to know, no other man will keep me
better insured than you my dear.
Words have free meanings, two voices to tell you what they mean
but only one heart to give you a real reason why they said it.
So just love me for your coy self and when things fall apart, 
we will fix it for there are things in life
worth fixing and keeping it strong.
That my dear is why we call it unconditional love."

The stanza above was my overall favorite. As I passed this stanza, my mind kept wandering back to it and reflecting on its loveliness. Perhaps it is the loneliness and the language that meld together so beautifully that makes my mind yearn to read it over and over. After I finished the poem, I reflected for a few seconds, particularly on my favorite stanza. Then, I decided that you truly so have a descriptive talent about you. You are very talented in bringing color to a blank canvas and making the reader feel the emotion you wish to impart.
