The Grain of Blood

In loved I vowed eternal oath
And basked my heart in light.
And gave you my all, my innocence
As you had taken me in the night.

I hunger for what I can not have.

You came to me in glittered splendor
With forked tongue you beguiled me.
You showed me the world with out bars
And gave me dream and reality.

I hunger for what I can not have.

Forsaken vows, my heart does bleed
At your feet I wither
And you continue on in strength
Upon another’s heart you slither.

I hunger for what I can not have.

What have you done to me?
That I can not see the light;
Yet a prisoner to your charms
As you leave me in the night.

I hunger for what I can not have.

This was indeed
a very good read.
Indeed, indeed.
Its nice how you kept the whole 'hunger for what you cant have' theme going in the poem.

You know I feel this way many times...I am hungering and desiring that which I cannot have...well only briefly and then it disappears as suddenly as it appears..as if constantly in motion...James

Most of us have hungered for that which we can not have!
True your special friend may have 'showed' you more, some little miracles all your own. But they didn't create them, they were there in you all along, your friend merely opened the door.
Knowing this now it's time to continue the journey on your own and with more power at your disposal....

Giving your heart to some one is a dangerous thing. I liked reading this.
