(74) Pseudo Heart

 

Watch out!, she's coming for you.
I'm so sorry, there's no escape now;
Especially as she has you in her sights.
You're hers, to do with as she wants;
A prisoner to her pseudo heart.

You think that you can control her;
You have to know you have that wrong.
What ever she wants, she always gets;
Because with her body you are enticed.
She has you now, with her pseudo heart.

I loved her once, but then I fell.
She took me and drained me of all I had;
Then she cast me out and left me to rot.
I know it was a mistake for she couldn't love.
For there is nothing left inside her pseudo heart.

I am enormously jealous of the title "Pseudo Heart." Wish I had come up with that.

Having learned that these are being posted in an order, and we're less than a third of the way through, I can only imagine the quality of the s**t we're gonna be seeing when we get towards 300. Thanks Chris.

I thought I was emotionally distant, I do believe the chick in this poem has me beat!

Very well written, I liked how you added "her pseudo heart" at the end of every stanza, it gave it a nice beat, I thought. I like every part, every thing about it, especially the "Watch out!, she's coming for you" at the beginning, sometimes it takes me awhile to get interested in a poem, but that hooked me instantly. Nice job!
