Clawing the edges, praying for safety,
Pulling at the latches, disembowelled
Your merciless attempts humour me
As your benign fear screams aloud.
Gaze at me unlovingly… unknowingly,
Like you believe I’ll be your rescue.
You thought I was full of glee
But I guess the twist came right on cue.
Amazing how such gleaming hate
Can bring out such uncanny truth.
You pulled your own lever, got your own fate
Who am I to rid you of your youth?
Your pretty little lies stung my heart,
I felt entitled to rip your body apart.

Sweet!
I know I probably will read this a dozen times more before I judge but this is more or less the type of poem that I like to read!
It was well worthy of the bronze trophy above, so congratulations on that.
Thank you for entering and good luck in the contest

Very Nice
Well this is certainly a very well rounded penned poem and I am very impressed by this poem. you have alot of unique methaphors through out and every stanza really added some punch and wallup to the poem. any ways congrats on Bronze in 1 of the contests and Good Luck in the contests. any ways keep on penning away.
Signed, Paul

I really liked this. I can feel the anguish being released, especially in your last stanza:
"Your pretty little lies stung my heart,
I felt entitled to rip your body apart."

The dark ones are my faves ummz.. my favourite part of your poem would have to be
'Your pretty little lies stung my heart,
I felt entitled to rip your body apart.' WOW!
