Soul's Decay

If you could see into the soul that lies
within this hollow shell,
then you would know that this heart cries
for an endless hell.
The hell of loving you, of course,
for it only causes soul's decay;
yet I, a selfish creature, have no remorse,
and for my sins I shall pay.

    *fetal position* Ah, so confused!!!!*twitch, twitch* It is a really good poem. And, I'm sorry, I have to agree with Jacob, Bells.

    WOW

    Really really cool poem. Honestly, even if I didn't know the background on this moodiness, I'd love the imagery you use in this. LOL, I think I'm starting to get u to rhyme more ^_~.

    Honestly though . . . You should allow yourself some happiness, at least once and a while. Before you cry out for another's love, you need to learn to love yourself, and part of that is learning to be happy. I know u feel for . . . Edward . . . but if you're not going to make a move anytime soon, learn to be a bit happier ^_^ TRUST me . . . you have more options than you'd believe . . .

      Oh, and P.S. It means that I'm destroying myself by liking him. It doesn't mean that I am "crying out for love". I'm writing about me feeling for him the way I do, which is causing me to rot inside myself. It's about chasing after a lost cause - something you'll never have. I'm selfish because I WANT that, even though it's unattainable, and my desire is taking me over. It's not something I can throw away, either, because I can't stop. I didn't ask for this; it just happened, and I will eventually pay for it. Dearly. I want him to be happy, though, no matter what. It might hurt me or destroy me, but do I really count? In the long run of what I really want, it doesn't matter what happens to me. I know what my priorites are.

        yea, yea, chill. Wait, what do you mean something I'll never have ;_; (No really, what DO you mean? . . .)

        Anyway, the comment wasn't supposed to be insulting your rationality, I know, regardless of how sappy you are, you're still (marginally) sane. All I meant was that I want you to be happy. With or without him. Please don't be mad at me for that.

          This is how it goes.

          I like him that way even though it hurts me to do so.
          He'll never like me back. EVER.
          I'm chasing after a lost cause.
          That's why it hurts.
          Because I'm chasing after something that will hurt me in the end.
          And the sad part is - I don't care. I WANT to get hurt, because I like him that much. I don't care what happens to me. I can't stop liking him or stop flirting.
          It just happens. ;-;
          And I don't even regret what I'm doing, no matter how horrible it is. T~T
          I'm selfish.
          Get used to it.

      Options? Like what? Who? o_0?

      Don't tell me I have a Mike, a Tyler, or an Eric. T_T;

      Please don't tell me I have more than one, because you said "options". As in, a plural. -.o;

      -screams- HOW MANY CRAZY PEOPLE ARE THERE?!? Dx

      I might take you up on the offer of getting me to the nearest Native American reservation. --;

      Just tell them to take a shot, whoever they are. I'm sure. . . Edward. . wouldn't care. In fact, he might be happy because then I'll be off his back and he won't have to worry about me trailing him with my useless affections. (He's very anti-romantic. Did you know that? He's shot down every love story I like.) Who knows? Maybe one will try to run me over with a van. . . And he can save me. . . or not. He'd probably just watch me die and point and laugh. -sarcastic- My hero.

      Hold on. He knows you call him Edward, so why are we calling him Edward if he KNOWS that it's him?

      Probably to confuse anyone else who might be reading this. --;

        Well, I don't know about Mike Tyler or Eric, those mortals are really hard to predict =P. I DO know you have a Jacob though . . . A sane one . . . Who just wants ur happiness ^_^ Sorry, no reservation though . . .

        Sorry, Jacob doesn't really think Bella would like him to take a shot at her, so he's just sitting back and giving advice, 'cause that's the only thing he can do *sigh* About his happiness though . . .

        LOL, it would be hilarious to see other people's reactions to this convo =P

          Jacob needs to stop worrying about Bella and start concerning himself with Renesmee. (Damn, it's like an Anime Club family. . . And thinking about that. . . Oh, man. The only word to describe THAT is. . . Well, just plain awkward. And kind of disturbing. Can't we have someone ELSE be Edward? That's what gets me about the Bella-thing. That HE'S Edward. In case you're wondering why I actually care about it.)

          (Why do I have a feeling you're going to come up with a list of Twilight names and the people you're sticking them to? T_T?)
