But I love you... (No not some dumb ass love poem)

IP: 739C DB67

I love you….

Did you offer it out there as a twisted apology?
Some kind of conscience clearing strategy,
To keep me out of your thoughts, a clear mentality?
You can’t get rid of me…

Because tainted words never sounded so pure
Than when they purged those lips so sure
And it seemed they were destined to be my cure
But they weren’t…

Your romantic tendencies have been calculated
Casualties totaled, but real pain’s not been evaluated
Your reasoning, sir? Not one syllable is validated
I’ve heard nothing you’ve stated…

Counteract these delusions, leave me something concrete
Sanctity, I surrender my lord to this sorrowful defeat
But leave me some part of you for with out it I’m incomplete
Left me groveling at your feet…

That's defining illness right there. Seriously.

I mean, on a technical level it's got multisyllabic rhymes, complex vocabulary, a strange but quite workable verse format.

And then on the emotional level... Well, to be absolutely honest, I think the technical aspects actually detracted from the emotions you displayed. The emotions were certainly there though.

What I found quite amazing was the fact that I'm pretty sure I actually thouroughly understood this. It takes talent to make my dunce of a mind comprehend anything.

i agree with Necro up there....i liked the mystery to this..it was kinda odd for lack of a better word, but it made sense. the structure, vocab, formation of the sentences.....all that was effective. and i understood the message i think.....it was real....
good sh!t

Ive come back to this piece a few times and re read it Calisto, basically because its so good... Ive not known what to say.. There is no critique necessary here, the way you have written this is unique and is obvious evidence of your talent as a writer.

Sometimes, the words I love you, really do lose all meaning.. and arent what we need to hear.. Some people, too many people.. well too many of my ex boyfriends.. have assumed that saying these words will fix anything..

Really great write Calisto. Loved this.

^^Shes right and I agree with her fully. Those words do lose there meaning and I can relate to it. Yea and arn't what they need to hear at all. Sometimes words speak greater when actions are included. This was felt deep and kinda made me think deep into myself about this. It takes a lot to do that and you have done it. Thanks for the great read Spect JT

many times people choose to use the words I
love you just the same as saying whats up for instance...
some things are better not said and better when they're
left to decide when he or she likes me..or loves me...
at least I think its better that way in this long legged life
"actions speak louder...you know the rest"

Cali you know I like this...im always here to help...
stay nice with it forreal cause your very talented...

*Smooches Con* Well thank ya sweety! Those words are definatly not something I take lightly and even in this situation I don't know how they were meant... I've never had the balls to truely ask all the questions I wanted to know so therefore I really don't know what to think. But I'm left with my perception of what happened and how things went down and I guess this was my angry side comming out because I don't have it in me to aim this aggression towards him, though he deserves every inch, if not more. Again, thank you all for your time and thoughts, peace

You write some good stuff. I liked how you put a different perspective on this. When I read the title I still didn't believe what was in parentheses. Proved me wrong, though.

The first stanza is what I liked most. I read it and pictured someone saying they are leaving you but still saying "I love you." Definately a twisted way to apologize. This seemed pretty clear with what was going on but I won't be suprised if I got it wrong. Highschool drop-outs miss even the simplest things.

How you broke it up into different parts was good. Made it easier to follow than the long paragraph type thing. Easier on the eyes, I guess? I dunno. You keep getting better. Kind of suprising. Ok, I'll stop before I make this reply too long.

nice piece right here, i felt it
"Because tainted words never sounded so pure
Than when they purged those lips so sure
And it seemed they were destined to be my cure
But they weren’t…"
^ i liked that right htere and the first part as well

but it seems as if you took a slightly different road with the last two parts; a sort of change of mind, i thought it was going somewhere else.. but it didtn take away much from the piece as a whole

i liked it, nice drop
keep elevatin

It's game, pure and simple, it was game... something I walked into unguarded because it was the only guy that I can honnestly say I have loved and he ran game on me... an then after the fact that he told me we couldn't be together after we were layin in bed naked recouping he kissed me goodbye and said "I love you". I didn't know what to think of that, and when he called me I asked him and he told me he did, which was undoubtedly bullshit but still... that was the deal, most people have gotten it right, the first line says it all, he did me dirty and those words are hollow and it was his apology...
I thank you all for your feedback and I really appreciate the different angles you have all taken to read this from.... Lovin RB, an lovin you all! Peace
