Heaven in Your Arms
By Andrea Sinisterra
Rated R
Author's Note: So, this is the first poem I've ever written, be nice with me, please. I was just writing the second chapter to Sabotage Backfire, when I went all angsty, and I had to vent out my frustrations somewhere else... AND, this is the outcome... Pretty dark, you'll see... But, I kind of like it. Please, review, I plead! Mwahahahaaa!!!

There's no such thing as heaven
Just simple words of hope and peace
There's no such thing as love
Just words too empty to please
But then, there's you
A complex set of words
Too heavy, too frightening
For simple minds like mine
To ever understand
It's in your arms where secrets unfold
It's on your lips, where truths remain untold
Inside your eyes, no secrets, all truth
A truth that tells me the fate of my lies
I die and then I cry
Two worlds too far apart
Two voices, deep and hollow
Two faces, scarred and shadowed
Crimson on your pale skin
Rivulets over your golden hair
The emptiness awakening despair
A life that no longer will be
So, it was you,
Angel of dark, angel of night
Mistress of mine,
Temptress of dreams
And swallow in my pain, I will
And swallow in my pride, I will
You were my sliver of hope
My last thread of silver and gold
No longer a ray, or a spear
No longer up, or down, here, or there
In the wake, or the dead
For I have no longer in me, a last shred of fear
It was you in my dreams...
It was you I feared...
I close my eyes, and breathe...
And together, at last...
We shall forever be.

I think I'll give it a shot to writing one a little more on the cheery side. That sentence was confusing.... Is it just me, or is this poem a little too corny??
