prompt #2

his touch burnt like acid
but was addictive as drugs
his smile was so placid
yet i would die for his hugs
the sun shone in his eyes
and the moon in his heart
but he wove a web of lies
in which i wanted no part
his soul glowed with a rage
enough to cause fit
i was trapped in his cage
scared of the next hit
yet when the stars were aligned
he could be so very kind
and so i was resigned
to wait for his mind

[B]

The battle of good and evil
We all have it

But we want perfection from our love

Truth is
no one is entirely good or bad
We are a mix
And only the wise can control the bad and bring out the good

Loved it
Very nicely done

Very nice use of words.

I liked the powerful want and need in the words. The poem loaded with emotion and the description was perfect. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.
