Fallen from Heaven, Son of the night
Lonely without you, Please hold me tight
Feeling each breath, Lips touch my skin,
Starting a fire, Breathing me in
I burned like an ember, Then I’m tossed free
Now scorched and spent, Vigorously used me
I’m part of your habit, You can’t keep away
Again I will suffer, While you make me stay
Under your foot, Crushed by the pain
When you release me, I’m never the same
I’m toxic and ugly, Yet still you do taste
Why do you keep me? My body does waste
Our cycle continues, Singed by hot poker
I’m locked into love, By a chain smoker

Quite a poem!
Thank you 🙂
You’re welcome!
Singed by your poker? WTH? 😛
Well, give me another good word that rhymes with smoker. Besides you know, a hot poker from the fire. Man where is your mind at? 😉
It’s midnight, my mind stopped working hours ago 🙂
Haha, but this side suits you…that wasn’t a complaint 😉
Oh I’ve functioned without a mind for most of my life 🙂
I can’t tell if you actually cared for this though or my drawing? I know I should care… but I do.
Oh sorry, I thought I complimented the post, must be getting late.
I’m teasing 😉 I know it’s late- get some rest!
I might go and dance with some dead 🙂
Haha!
Fabulous poem and I love your sketch as well!

Great poem, even better when I read it as a cigarette, burning up for your love!
