Is this Better?

For so long I wished and prayed for somebody to hold me at night.
To call me his baby, and dry my tears if I for some reason began to cry.
But Fate is twisted and played another trick on me.
For the person Fate has given me offers no sence of security.
True he's caring, behind closed doors.
Sure he's loving between four walls.
But he hurts me everyday if we dare go out into the world.
He pretends we're not together, he makes me feel all alone.
He pushes me away if I dare reach for his hand.
He turns his head if I dare ask for a kiss.
Well Fate, thanks a lot, for giving me somebody so useless,
whom makes me feel cold and somewhat helpless.
Well, you know what, Fate?  I've had quite enough
Next time I see you, I will cut you up.
And as for the man who's been making me feel so bad,
Don't you worry about him, he's resting peacefuly in my bed.
Last night we had a talk about the way he rejects me in public,
I didn't like what he had to say, so I gutted him and stuffed him with cotton.
I like him much better now, I feel so secure.
I know now we were meant to be together... forever more.

OH.......I absolutely love this.  I feel the same way about the man that is currently in my life.  He is not affectionate at all and there are many nights I've imagined doing quite what you described.  LOL....thanks for this one....it brought a smile to my face and a good giggle to my heart.

Shhh....

Calm your mind down a bit.
Let the verse flow ...

don't hasten yourself
to pour it all out
in each line.

We're here.
We're listening.

Shhh....

It's harder,
and better,
to blow someone's mind
with silence
than volume.

this is good.....seriously though the last couple of lines remind me eerily of some of Eminem's lyrics.... Really powerful Succubus.

seems my sweet you hope for a perfect stasis, a union of sorts and yet, is that really what one gets from two minds sorted into one?  cotten means fuzz to me, and aren't we all always picking at that damned stuff?!?
