Perverse

Rating: 4.9


My heart tells me I like you
My mind says I'm not allowed to.
I know I can't have you, ,
How I wish that's not true.

I wish I could hold you forever!
And you'd stay with me to be near,
Feeling your presence beside me.
But I know this can not be.
Not for me.

A lot of people love.
And surround us.
They may become hurt,
By a careless act.
Have caused you pain...
Perhaps?
I must stop myself caring.

One thing that I do,
Is think of those sweet memories left...
By you...
But I somehow must be stop,
To quit...
My perverse love.

Why quit that stubborn love? If you love dearly it doesn't bother...just kidding.. nicely written verse...keep up your good work... Best Wishes, Ency Bearis

A perverse love has the feeling of guilt with itself. Is there anything normal in love? Nothing. The true uncanny element is towards our intimate story. Some elements hurt us because we don't feel 'ours' themselves. If they really were ours, we'd accept them better. Though a little perverses.

Oh how it hurts to love someone or fall in love with someone you can't be with. Very nicely written.

I thought it was very sensuous poetry you wrote quoting the word perverse, but it was a lighter version of obsession about sensuality.... the lit of being in love like that of a teenage girl! Sweet romantic poem...I liked it! High marks.

Unless you have other ulterior motives? Perverse seems more 'obsessive'. I enjoy this. It adds another 'twist' to perversiveness.
