love and alliances

My love you are forever a diamond in between my heart .....

I’m so sorry that we have to part .....

But at times we have to face rules .....

I have to marry for convenience like the rest of the mafia fools.....

This alliance to me is not fun.....

But what can I do, I am the only girl in this family , the only one.....

I have to fulfil this duty , its my turn....

We have to maintain alliances or our families name will crash and burn.....

I do want you my love , but everyone thinks that you are not powerful enough for me .....

We have to apologise to our hearts because they will never be free.....

They say love conquers all but in this case it is not true....

It goes down in history that Mafia families need alliances , so this is nothing new....

The man that I am forced to marry threatens us , he even shot at our door ....

He goes around to everybody saying that he wants me and nothing more.....

If I get any other boy friends they risk getting shot.....

To avoid this i will just marry him to fulfil his plot.....

So my love The reason why I am not getting with you is for your own sake....

I can pretend to love him , I’m good at being fake....

After all he’s only buying my name with his money, my heart he never can afford....

And in life I will always be in love with you so I wont ever get board.....

I can yell kick and scream , but I will still have no say.....

I can cry and not eat up to my wedding day....

But my family just ignores my outrage and despair....

They say I am the one that is selfish and unfair....

And that I do not think about the families position and well being....

Also that I ignore the fact that I’m on the mafia team....

I am so sorry my love that I can not escape from this....

On my behalf you will be sadly missed....

But what you have to keep in mind is that we can secretly meet every now and then....

And we will create a job to be secret lovers until the end....

Maybe even a child of yours will be mine one day....

We have to be sly and smart and sometimes stay away....

Like when you ring my house phone hang up if you don’t hear my voice....

And remember that I am not with him by choice....

I am with him for alliances and to avoid violence....

My love my life until we meet again we both have to suffer in silence....

On my wedding at the altar I will only be thinking of you....

And how our impossible love must be hidden, but always true.

    It was such a deep piece and you really get a feel for what this life could be like. I was actually quite touched by this piece and I would always quite happily read it again! I may change the length of it if it were mine, but at least you have got everything into this.
    I wish you the best of luck in this contest,
    Thank you for this wonderful entry,

    Raw

    This was intense and emotional. I loved this so much. Are you actually part of a Mafia family or is that private?

    honest and raw

    I loved the letter style this poem took, I'm not sure if you intended it that way but I liked it. I see that the woman in the poem is hankering after forbidden love which gives it a sadness which i liked. Under this prompt of temptation I would of liked you to describe to me more how your lover tempted you how he made you feel. good luck thanks for entering

    love and alliances

    Wow, this is so well written - twisted heart is explaining - finding a reason to make it bearable. I like the flow and rhyme. Bit strange; the first poem I picked is about Mafia while I got on your page because of your comment on my Cosa Nostra!? ... :-)

    I like it a lot. Very unique. Your voice in writing is distinct and clearly felt within the reader. We all have to do things we don't want to, but do anyways to make others happy. Creative piece you have here. My favorite lines were:

    I am with him for alliances and to avoid violence
    My love, my life, until we meet again, we both have to suffer in silence
    On my wedding, at the altar, I will only be thinking of you
    And how our impossible love must be hidden, but always true.

    Nice write.
