Dismayed By Each Other, Betrayed By Ourselves

Always there for each other, full of laughs, full of smiles
Not aware that with time come such testing trials
But as lovers they’d cope, forever surely?
Together forever loving, for eternity

--x--

One man to love, one opportunity to stay.
One opportunity to turn into dismay
One opportunity passing, scattered with jealousy,
As Love turns in time to one bittersweet memory.

Guilty embers burn their soft restless flame,
As I sit wondering why I feel so much hate?
Unwanted and cruel, turning love into ash
One person and another, changed in a flash

My blood in tides impulsively flows
As the anger inside me bubbles and grows
This creature within, never content or at ease
The one I must tame as I never can please

My tongue, the way the creature enters this world
With words of hate I’m not saying slowly unfurled
It snaps and it bites then, calmly away
To rest and awaken for another foray

In restless whispers I try to explain
I can’t stop the creature, I cry out in vain
I love you, I hate you, I cannot control
These feelings slowly eating away at my soul

Trying fiendishly to fix our faults for each other
While still paranoid we’re each with another
Not coping, just hoping we can start ‘new
But all of that comes to nothing for what we have been through

Because the damage’s been done through stolen sweethearts
And nobodies won as we lay down our cards
A lover’s paradise that's washed up on long distant shores
A lost lover’s paradise, not a paradise no more

I loved you, I lost you, just what have I done?
Why did you change into a different someone?
I know I changed too, it can’t be the same
And forever I’m lonely silently taking the blame

--x--

Never meant for each other, never alike
Always ready to break out and fight
But lovers ‘theless and lover’s we’ll be
Apart but still loving, for eternity

Who love each other dearly, whatever they go through and will always be together at the end of it to look back and smile at the good times...I really do love you Thom x

    There are some really good lines ...

    in this, and a few not so good ones. I'd say you should revisit this one and do a bit more thinking on it.

    Here:

    And nobodies won as we lay down our cards (nobody's won)

    otherwise, you've done quite a good job with this.

    Holy crap. It's in so many contests! Anyways, focusing. This is a really complex and cool write. I <3 it soo much. It's both sad and hopeful, in waves, like real life and love. Which is just so cool. I adore this. I will now check out your collaberator's (sp?) work because now I'm intrigued. I may come back and comment on more of your poetry! We shall see!

    Beautiful and expressive... and just goes to show further that love and hate split the two sides of passion's coin indeed. Thank you for sharing this, and best of luck in the contests!

    Well done you two
    this is really good
    just perfect
    first i was a bit worried when i started to relate at some points
    and that isnt really a good thing
    but i liked the ending
    my favourite part was

    In restless whispers I try to explain
    I can’t stop the creature, I cry out in vain
    I love you, I hate you, I cannot control
    These feelings slowly eating away at my soul

    absolutely awesome write
    keep it up

    ♥ ur sis

    Woah!

    It blew me away...
    I love this bit 'My tongue, the way the creature enters this world
    With words of hate I’m not saying slowly unfurled
    It snaps and it bites then, calmly away
    To rest and awaken for another foray' It's amazing.

    Hats off to you both
