I fell asleep
and trusted my soul to keep
but then I entered a lush garden
which I entered without a pardon
over at the far end
yes just around the bend
was a women standing
on a marble landing
her back was turned to me
and I could see
snakes in her hair
yet her skin was quite fair
and she had quite a nice derrière
I turned to flee
but that's just not me
she had the snake hair thing
but I heard that wow could she sing
a lonely broken hearted song
about so many things that were wrong
I looked again
around that bend
in addition to the skin, voice and ---
her body had more curves then a racetrack
so adapting my best tack
I picked some red flowers
by the big ivory tower
and walked up to her and bent on one knee
presenting the flowers I said see
this is for you
because your song was sad and true
she turned and said arghh now you turn to stone
but instead I said I do not wish to spurn
but stone is not really my thing
I can show you my yo-yo on a string
or perhaps juggling maybe a little mime
I can do many wonderful things if you have the time
so she pulled out a gun
suprised I said no no thats no fun
then I looked as cute as I could
and stayed as still as wood
I don't understand she said why you don't attack me
you are a hero and I am hideous can't you see
I said nah handing her the flowers
you are quite beautiful here by your tower
I would rather take you out for coffee and cake
so I leave the rest of the story out for you to make
;)

She used to be so shy and innocent. She was anything I ever wanted in a girl. I would think to myself, how can such a beautiful girl be so stunning, yet withhold such a charming personality? She was truly a gift from God, and I treated her like one. But slowly, yet surely, that image proved to be a striptease. She was an angel growing devil horns. No one could stop her. Her inner beauty shifted from love to lust. Her outer beauty became ****** rather than angelic. She changed for the worse, and all I could do was watch her reshape into a salacious figure. What is there to do now, move on? Move on from someone who provided the positive emotion to my life? Maybe I could wake up with a positive attitude and embrace the single life. But how do I embrace the single life when I desire a companionship? I don't want to embrace a life I don't aspire. No, what I seek is revenge.  Don't settle for loss. Don't take what she handed you. Take what she owes you and turn it into vengeance. Swear by the devil's word and make her swallow your retribution. Take the upper hand and chain it to her deathbed. Show her who the real winner is. Wait, but don't latch the chains on too tight. Give her enough slack to contemplate. Enough slack to realize her mistakes. Give her enough time to re-consider. Enough time to consider change. Show her the past, and how it used to be. The past led by an angelic child. The past where another child fell in love with her presence. The past where their humble beginning was destined to lead to a promising future. A future where they settled for intimacy rather than detachment, and a tie rather than a loss.
I called this tri-polar because the poem shifts from sadness, to anger, to forgiveness. This was actually a snippet from one of my journal entries. :)
N.E
Her eyes have been known to bring men to her knees.

Her lips have been known to cast spells and make everyone weak.

Her laugh has been known to silence a room awaken spirits,
and put demons to sleep.

She's breathtaking, because she's unaware.

Her spirit is light, and wondering, what next will she seek?

She longs to be on her own, she longs to explore, she longs to be spontaneous.

That's how she longs to be seen.

Years of meaningless words and misleading sounds have taught her this;

When it comes to her, she will be the same.

With every year that passes, she will remain the same age.

She will always be that girl offering new girsl pencils in the fifth grade.

Your enticement was impeccable
The charm you brought the table was irresistible
Who wouldn't accept such an intimate offer?
But a hint of poison was laced in your skin
Incognito at first sight
Yet I fell too intensely at your gaze for it to register
It was too late by the time the poison became visible
You became a part of me I couldn't shake off
Your lust will be the death of me
To the girl who brought me in a world I didn't want

You latched onto me
Or did I latch onto you? I must know

Oh how I crave your past intimacy that drove my ambition
What was life before you? I must know

Hence I must've had a satisfactory living
Or was I lost in my own self-induced struggle? I must know

If I could see upon my future, I must be intrigued,
But if I could see upon my past, would I be regretful? I must know

All of the unanswered questions you manage to bestow upon me
Or have I managed to bestow them upon myself? *I must know
I can't let you go

I can't let you go
The wounds you left on me need your healing
You and I will really be something
Unite with me when we reach the end of the road
Gaze into my eyes as I will to yours
Hold my hand as I lead you to the path of euphoria
To the girl driving me into insane obsession
