Description You could be love.
You could be fate.
You could be hurt.
You could be hate.
You could begin to desecrate.
You could catch me since you’re the bait.

I’m forced to feel.
I’m forced to cry.
I’m forced to quit.
I’m forced to try.
I’m forced to urge my life to die.
I’m forced to tell the truth and lie.

You could be next.
You could be true.
You could be peace.
You could undo.
You could alter the crimson hue.
You could be frightening. Something new.

You smile and laugh.
You smile and jeer.
You smile and push.
You smile and cheer.
You smile at me another year.
You smile and fade things from the clear.

You could be blind.
You could foresee.
You could believe.
You could not be.
You could create the secret key.
You could become the end of me.

I went cold and partially numb when I read this. Right about now, this could apply to my life. You truly are amazing.

This is a nine inch nails song. It must be. Same quality and aura. Wicked, mysterious, challenging. Its rather unlike your signature style, a pleasant surprise.

I can guess who it is who was the power.

You have such a gift of words Sylwia

Wow. Comparing me to Trent is ... wow. Kim would kill you.

That would be really funny to witness.

hmm... *ponders likeness of poem* now i generally am a fan of repetition and its wonderful impact. however i'm not sure it worked for this one. perhaps its just me but it just seems too much repetition and one can get bored... just me though!

The repetition (alliteration, was it?) was just perfect for this piece. Great work.

Another very beautiful piece of writing. I love how the poem just flows so well together, and honestly, I simply adore it.
