marked for life
with your love's ink
it draws its patterns on my vulnerable heart
dig the needle further in
i revel in the pain
the pleasure of your touch
we're creating this work of art
etched eternal in our souls
whatever the future is
I'll be forever marked
for life

enjoyable idea behind this piece... I thought that "I'll be forever marked for life" was tautology however.

matching tattoos are too cool, you should still do it, really i can't hold the market on such a great metaphor!!!

my man and i just got matching tatoos the day before yesterday and just a few moments ago i was pondering writnig a poem about it.. but now i dont wanna feel like a poser. anyway. good stuff! "stched eternal in our sould" thats a marvelous line!

there are those that say that love and pain come from the same emotion, i have to say, i think they're right

Love and pain all at once.. Very interesting... I like how your poems are short.. Yet they manage to say so much.

love gets under the skin in multi-colored hues..it fills the heart and stains one's soul with eternal memories of what was a pretty picture in one's arms......Artis

incision engraved
dipping sharpness into paints
covered in meanings of our intertwining lives
and the lasting evidence
of drilling finishes on the skin
brands you in soulful surrender
one love

Keep it up!
Wow, I loved reading this. It has so much emotion attached to it & to some extent it showed pain, love, despair, & so much more for the reader(s) to this poem. I like how you wrote this & this is simply a wonderful piece... Keep it up!
