The Pen is Mightier than the Sword

Something for everyone


Recommended Posts

Hmm, I haven't written in a long time, oh well. Here we go!

 

 

Your smile is a glacier cracking in two

Your heart could destroy the kindest view

You've beauty, 'tis true, but the cruelest sort

I hate you, despair, and withdraw my support.

 

You've got something for everyone

But nothing for me

I've seen all the lies and truth

And all there is to see

 

Despair's a girl with wicked eyes

A fetching smile that can criticize

A perfect body with perfect curves

With so much more than she deserves

 

She's got something for everyone

But nothing for me

I've seen all the lies and truth

And all there is to see

 

She'll draw you in and hold you close

And hurt you where you feel it most

She'll take your soul and throw it away

And then she'll with your ruined body play

 

She's an evil mistress with a hidden plan

Like a secret spy from a distant clan

She'll hide her face until the end

And then she'll reveal she's not a friend

She's a banshee, a demon, a fiend

Like the darkness before light intervened

Nothing she'll say should sway your path

If nothing else, should ignite your wrath

 

She's got something for everyone

But nothing for all

We've seen all the lies and truth

And we've seen how to fall

        I like it a lot. Sort of has the feel of a short ballad to me for some reason. The insight you provide in the matter of despair is very sage. Good to hear from you again! Speaking of which, I haven't posted a poem in a while either...
