Description
U n s a v e m eSteal away the softness from my eyes.
I want your fingerprints on my thighs,
The rainbows you leave there
When I taste your blood on my lips.
Cruel savior-
Make me beg.
Starve me-
Feed me the emptiness I crave,
Please- kiss me with your teeth.
Fill my head with your throat-sounds,
Primal
To chase away the void.
I cannot stand your gentle hands.
Unstained,
They stroke so tenderly,
And though I ache for you
To score with pointed fingertips
The smooth skin of my hips,
You do not.
Bruise away my bitter deeds
Like I long of you.
Tarnish me
Sweet prince,
Rid me of damned innocence,
Flay me with my longing
So hollow-
My raspy yes is barbed within my throat.
Red welts on ivory skin,
Black oceans of bliss
Your name, carved deep enough to scar.
These things I want-
For you to make me nothing,
Free me from myself,
Blind me so that I may see you,
Choke me so that I may breathe.
U n s a v e m e.

I agree with you completely. This was my "fighting through a creative drought" piece, it really wasn't meant to stand up to judgement! Thank you for your thoughts, honesty is refreshing, I just feel terrible that this piece has gotten so popular. I really don't like it at all, and there are other things in my gallery that I like much better. I suppose I could send it to scraps, but I was hoping that if they like this piece ppl would be more likely to wander over to my gallery and have a peek at my better things...

Yes. I was talking about the self-mutilative cliche used in the piece.
Anyways, when I've got time I'll shoot over to your gallery and check it out.

I like this line, it's original and perfectly appropriate. The rest is fitting it just isn't as unique.

OMG...that was so beautiful. ;_;
That poem is the kind of poem I try so hard to compose, but never seem to get right.
Your words really touched me...so sad, yet so beautiful.
Bittersweet, it expresses feelings like many poems fail to do.
I commend you; this work is truly amazing.
I look forward to more of your deviations.

I love it.
It's perfectly written out and definitely tells a great story... I just love it!! My favorites are:
"Rid me of damned innocence"
and
"Blind me so that I may see you,
Choke me so that I may breathe"
Pure and entrancing.
