Hate me she pleaded.
Ask for the moon not to phase
for the sun not to rise
for rain not drop
for thunder not to sound
I answered...

And my eyes became water
my knees sustained a dead weight
opression of uselesness
dire heart sadly pumping
my unfelt, thick , blood.

Why did i fly into hell?
a road well cautioned it was
but blind love's guide
is the goddess of insanity

Who could know love
without tasting bitterness?
who could know victory
if fallen ye haven´t.

Hate me she pleaded

So I Will

Let the moon be always full
night be eternal
rain shoot to the sky
thunder be mute.
our love die.

Ixtab~
You know what ?
I like this.
Raw emotion told with such feeling.
You've got some great lines in here.

Wow! This is very sad, but very truthful. Overall I enjoyed it...especially the way you ended it.

 Nothing can deter a poet, for he is actuated by pure love. Who can predict his comings and goings? "Thoreau"

Wow~
This is told with such feeling.  It's painful to let a love die but it's healthier that way.  Thank you for sharing your pain it makes other feel that they aren't alone either.  I enjoyed reading your work and look forward to doing it again.
