Darkening psycho gossip breeds hostile motions,
while inner pain seems to have become immortal.
Dirty promises were made in pitch-black misery,
like a diamond that would glisten as an award,
I grasp sin and devour its forbidden fruits
sickening yet delicious to my psychology –
Sorrow has mutated my persona into blazing madness,
happiness is beautiful like celestial twilight,
yet too far for even promises to capture.
With a jaded undertone spilling from sarcastic lips,
Darkness reveals a taunting epiphany –
Knowing I am hungry for mental serenity,
playing on the insecurity on a downhearted obsession.
Dreams for happiness are laid like magnolias,
on the tomb of your beloved.
Leaving you saying, “I wish I truly knew more about you.”

Well, it was a good write. I enjoyed reading it, but the text didnt pop out enough to keep my attention( i am add). i would change the text font and it would be a much more powerful work. All in all it was good though.

I am in absolute awe that you could do that with that word bank...I mean seriously....it seems effortless. This is incredible.
This entire piece is laced with superb lines.
Thank you for entering this into my contest.

VERY NICE!!!! Especially for a word bank, doesnt seem forced at all! Especially love:
"Dirty promises were made in pitch-black misery, "
"I grasp sin and devour its forbidden fruits
sickening yet delicious to my psychology – "
"yet too far for even promises to capture."
"Knowing I am hungry for mental serenity,
playing on the insecurity on downhearted obsession. "
