I do not compare
she is Goddess
who stole my God

His violent clap of thunder
shakes me out
of revolution
I dream of
before sleep every night


Whichever form temptation took
it were Goddess of vile addiction
and I will never compare

This was aweome.I have to tell you though, that you aren't only a poetess but also a goddess in your own right.Never compare yourself to someone else you are perfect just the way you are.

yes, adreed, ditto, awesome, but there is no comparison...darling, no one is a Godess, all of us have faults, believe if you will, that you are in all of who you are...perfection!  smiles and hugs....

What a writer you are.

I spelt temptation wrong!
oh but i hate the way it looks underneath with the this message was edited at...it spoils it. so sorry.

You two? you're too kind. thankyou both, your replies are always such an encouragement, seriously, you are wonderful friends.

The Goddess I speak of is not neccessarily human, but is just as powerful. i can't explain, my head's too fuzzy.


Thankyou.

Gemma, if I read this correctly, his "Goddess" was a "vile addiction"? If that is so, then my sweet friend, you are way above his other "Goddess". But, really, you are anyway, you know.

By the way, you can edit your posts without anyone knowing, because the color won't show. This is how......
Go back into your edit box and delete the "/" in front of "/font". Then on the other side of the word "font, put......color="bfdfff". I would do it for you, so you could see, but I can't in this forum. Hope that helps.

Love and hugs

Damn girl, I stand in awe of the way you write. You used a great theme and images to add to the poem's strength. I only wish that I could write more consise like you.  But, I'll just say that I relate as usual.

(smiles) Oh Gemma, you always write with such depth and heart, sweet friend, I think ever too much we compete with what feel like demi-gods at first, only to then see their exposed inferior interior! (big hugggsssssss) You truly are special, sweet friend, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Gemma, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

Gemma~

Oh I have fought the goddess myself, and thankfully she won...

I am going to bed now because I am sick

Thanks for the goodnight read!
