Position:Home>Poetry> Can you see what this poem I wrote is about?Question:Unasked I wanted morning to come again They are all around The demons whose eyes are men And where ebony blood is found The darkness that beseeches them To come closer to my bed Hurts me like a thorny stem And covers me in red I can’t control the urge to hate Yet I wallow through in pain To my bones they lacerate Sending writhe strait through my brain I fight against all frayed touch Melting in a bad way They force me into unyielding clutch Working me like clay Morning comes but I don’t notice My eyes open still are blank Upon my lips an unfair kiss Robbed like an unguarded bank Nothing you do to hurt me Will ever fully compare To the agony and angst that taught My body to go nowhere Here I lay alone at last No demons here will follow For now the bugs and dirt alone Will carve my body hollow Houston April 9, 2008 Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Unasked I wanted morning to come again They are all around The demons whose eyes are men And where ebony blood is found The darkness that beseeches them To come closer to my bed Hurts me like a thorny stem And covers me in red I can’t control the urge to hate Yet I wallow through in pain To my bones they lacerate Sending writhe strait through my brain I fight against all frayed touch Melting in a bad way They force me into unyielding clutch Working me like clay Morning comes but I don’t notice My eyes open still are blank Upon my lips an unfair kiss Robbed like an unguarded bank Nothing you do to hurt me Will ever fully compare To the agony and angst that taught My body to go nowhere Here I lay alone at last No demons here will follow For now the bugs and dirt alone Will carve my body hollow Houston April 9, 2008 It sounds like the words of a rape victim who's now dead. Gruesome but that's what I get from it. Sexual abuse and suicide? definitely death, probably suicide It's about rape. a girl gettin ra pe d???????? wow. That is pretty intriguing when you really look at it. On the surface, Im expecting you to get alot of "emo" comments...but if "emo" is noted as a "flaw", and you mean what you say, flaws can be beautiful. I like your imagery and wording...i dont think its about suicide or death....but i am afraid to guess specifically. Something deep seeded. It's a good poem but not my type... vampires..? gawd....you are a beastly poet! I would guess rape. Your poem was fairly clear about pain and death. i think rape n suicide! idk but plz tell god bless brittni Sounds like a rape victim who gets killed. Possibly a girl who kills herself because of the demons in her head, from possibly from a x-bf or something? Its alright, way to dark for my taste. idk houston? This poem is about rape and someone dyeing yes, but the real question is why the poet chose these words. What is her story?That story I'm guessing, Is about a girl who is trying to forget something that happened to her. Maybe rape or molestation, only you know Houston. Maybe she is trying to tell us that she still can feel the "demons" touching her even as she dies. Your significant other? I'm not saying this is representative of your actual relationship but it could be representative of your hardships with him? EDIT: Wow, my idea was quite different from the others. |
