I'll lick the blood
From the knife you stabbed me with
Your highness
Our "love"
Filled with too many
Cyanide Covered Kisses
&& Heartfelt Good byes
After all of these years
Serving your toxic distaste
I've become ill with the thought of you
&& Yet this sickness,pulls me closer
All with such haste
I love when you stab me in the back
I adore my infected wounds
I yearn for those hateful words
I swoon for our disaster
Author notes
This is for the contest and the song is "Tainted Love" - Marilyn Manson
(His cover of it)
So in Ode to him, it's going to be a bit twisted.

Thank you, <3
I Appreciate the time and your comment. This was written awhile back, but other than Manson I have My Ex Gf to thank. Lulz. She was the inspiration for that hell.

^.^ such wonderfully dark word choice! XD
makes me think of when people's parents won't let then be with someone because they think that they're bad for their kid.... i might be the only one seeing the relation, but yeah XD although it also rather reminds me of a spoiled princess and her servant, although loving her despising him.... in a sense? feel free to correct or critisize if i'm wrong XDDD
a grand write

Thaaank you
Hahaha. I never thought of it that way but you're right. Though, you know poetry effects everyone differently. We can both look at the same masterpiece and both find completely different emotions from it. You know? I'm glad that you like it!!

Wow, Loving the darkness here!!!
Deep, dark & incredibly visual...
Way to channel that darkness, you weild it well...
Had me captivated throughout with great use of metaphor, wordplay/use/choice.
Another fantastic write...
Well done!!!

Very raw and dark emotions here, love the imagery and the way you can almost feel a rush of sadness and anger run through you.

Twisted, dark, and beautifully phrased... I will be the first to admit, this is NOT my genre... but I can appreciate the persona that you put on to write this. I think that's the true beauty of good poetry... you don't really write it... you assume the identity of someone who could write it... and you've done that very well...
I think this is a a really solid piece...Thank you for sharing...Truely, this is what I was hoping for... and it's unappreciated no longer.

Very Nice...I think a bit longer would do it even more justice, but, the poem/song itself is very good...full of twisted desires and darkness.
Bravo love! lol

Hehehe. Thank you missy. =]
I will definitly think about making it longer. ^.^

yay! Manson! You did do this song justice. I loved the 'twisted' ways you put in it. My favorite lines are, "I love when you stab me in the back/ I adore my infected wounds" Amazing. I loved this piece. I wish you luck in this contest too! Keep this up. Its a brilliant piece.
