My Last Breath Poem by Tiger Lily Love
My Last Breath
Awoken in the night
To find you once again in my midst
I'll never understand the control you had over me
The power you wielded enabling me to act like this
Your once oh so intoxicating presence
Began chokes me like a thick cloud of poision
But from you I just couldn't get away
Almost as if in time I was frozen
The closer you got to me
The more I choked and heaved
I can't believe that once upon a time
I was so easily decieved
Your once so soft and warm hands
That use to caress my face
Are now hard, cold, and burn my skin like fire
Why is it that my heart
Wanted what it wanted
Even the worst possible desire?
Just as your poisionous presence
Threatened to do away with me
Your grip suddenly released and I was set free
But never the less
The traces of you and marks you left
Still remain all over me
No matter how hard I try to forget
I just don't have enough strength
I guess I'll always recall
The night you came so close
To stealing my very last breath
This is gorgeous! I love the passionate but bitter reflection. Funny how often those two feelings mix. Hands down favourite line: But never the less The traces of you and marks you left Still remain all over me Did you take that line from some poem I haven't written yet-? :) Seriously, I love it!
