Short Story Contest Entry- “Sweet as a Darling, And Never Tart, Will you Eat My Candy Heart”
March 8, 2018
Eyes in the night
I gaze
Feelings ablaze
Mind in a haze
Heart Bursting
Bursting
Bursting at the sight
Through a window
Bleating Beating
Orgasmically Pleading
For a scream of delight
I see Red
I feel Red
Paint Red
Like the Blood in my Veins
Clogging my Brain
Crocs Drained
Of life
Socks Wet
In the Sand
Your hand
Rain
On my Forehead
My Bony Fingers
Reaching Out
Waiting, to be Wed
BE Mine
Be MINE
The Candy Hearts Shriek
My Love
I’ll forever seek
If love is a battlefield
I’ll commit war crimes
Rose Tinted Glasses
In a cruel heartless world
Impersonal Impersonalities
Gilded in my brass
Flicked Reality
They Say it isn’t in your heart
They say it’s in your brain
But then why does it hurt so much
Hearing Her call out your name
Syncopated Minds
Two of a kind
Power couples shine
WIll you, Be Mine?
Livid
Splendid
Grand Ol’ Times
In my imagination
You are happier
We are happier
Because you are mine
Just us
Not her
With her nasally Whine
Her Eyes like seaweed
Filled with Brine
She is a Mary Sue
But, I am for you
I don’t care if she ends up dead
Because when she is gone
I will not see red
And when she is gone
You will not feel blue
When she is gone
The fates will hold true
That when she is gone
Like days of sunshine
Yes, when she is gone
You Will be Mine.
The persistent voices
Raise their doubts
But in my mind
They hold no clout
I will act Soon
It will happen Any day
And on your life
I will be The Golden Ray
The freedom of no choice in a universe impertinent
The truth that we are not truly sentient
The culpable children of those resigned
But none of that will matter
Once Again we shall be blind
Only You will matter
If you will be mine
No
When you are mine
