I'm in touch with my emotions;
I know my feminine side.
My Metrosexuality
Beats different drums inside.
I use 'For Men' cosmetics
And moisturise my skin
Eclectic tastes in art display
Complexities within.
I balance my career and life
And Family comes first.
I love my kids, I love my wife
(In bed, she too comes first)
I'm proudly multi-disciplined
My skillset-list attracts
A wage that says for all to see
"There's nothing my life lacks."
So all this should be perfect
But my life on show's a lie
Though everything is rosy
I simply want to cry.
Indicative of this mad malaise
Is the struggle I had to choose
A rhyme for lie: to
She might not be a nice person by bitdifferent, literature

She might not be a nice person
She might not be a nice person.
I know next to nothing about her except that she is beautiful. Beautiful in a two-hours-before-the-mirror kind of way, with delicate strands of mascara so extending her eyelashes that they became a sort of trap, an eye magnet.
She scanned the total visible surface of all who came towards her with the confident eye of a buyer who could afford any price but was in no hurry to make a purchase. Perhaps the obscured lechery beneath her gaze was only in my imagination. Perhaps it was real.
When it came to my turn she lingered on my shoes. They're not very impressive. I'm not very impressive either. I was clo
My unbrave heart in another's chest beats
In he, as yet unknown, who shares your life.
Such vague accomplishments of love, such feats
As he shall raise, I will inspire, wife.
His blessed eyes I will possess in truth
Behind his lips my sacred, secret smile.
My Affection, so unlegal in your youth
Continues but through his unfettered style.
Yet contemplating such unkind events,
I shudder, and I shall not pass away
Unbidded to your night; my soul prevents,
At least not till my truth I dare to say:
Though I wrongly made a breaking-hearted choice
I must give unlived love a real voice.

She wears apathy like a wide brimmed hat
and sin, like a pair of new shoes
She's best friends with jealousy's daughter
and she's dating Sir I've got the blues
Her mother is in therapy
with Doctor ice & gin
And Daddy lets adultery
hug his untouched sweaty skin
In day she sings of aptness
yet at night she speaks much less
Her mind is screaming for redemption
and yearning's feeling up her dress
She dreams of dancing freely
holding hands with liberty
Then she wakes up next to arrogance
whose breath reeks of reality
She'll be en route to expectation
when in her rear view mirror she'll find
apprehension and misgiving

I want you to love me.
I know that I am fat and,
I know that I am ugly but,
I want you to love me.
To accept my shortcomings.
To accept my foolish-ness.
To accept my stupid-ness.
To accept me and my failings.
We both have problems
we can solve.
We both have needs
we will meet.
We both have love
we must share.
So please settle for me.

This creeping, and then running death
I call most cold despair
Crouches in the shadows of my heart.
It seeks to freeze
my joy in life
but masquerades as art.
Just a little scrappette, but the question is, have I heard that 'masquerades as art' thing somewhere else already, or did I really just think of it? It sounds too good for me to have just come up with it in an odd moment.
Hey, thanx for adding my WP to your favorites. I'm glad to see someone using It other than me. You really should upload some of your poems; you'll love the responses you get.
Just wasted two hours searching for the perfect wallpaper for my new PC! Think I'll stay a bit longer... I had no idea DA was such a big and varied community; I thought it was just wallpaper! Planning to drop in some poetry I've done. I love to explore structure in poetry - I find that being tied to a specific form - say a sonnet, a haiku or even something wacky like a boustrophedon (sp?) really focusses my mind on what I'm trying to communicate. That said, I'll drop it just as quickly if I can make my point more clearly without it...
