Why I Can't Get You Out
July 14, 2009
My dear,
Sweet Prince of my dreams,
I cannot tell you how much it pains me to say this
But you are clouding my judgement
My mind is full of your fragrant haze
I wish I could get you from under my skin
You're like a virus seeping into my skin
You make me crazed, confused
And as much as I want you
I don't.
I beg you to leave my brain
To leave me alone
For though I want you so much
I know you don't want me
And as you plaque my brain, you are making me love you more.
I don't want you anymore!
Get from under my skin.

I agree with xXsmileXx. This is great, and yes, I have been there and done that as well. :) Thank you very much for commenting on my work! The only thing I would suggest is changing how you use punctuation. The second-to-last line, "I don't want you anymore!" is choppy and different from the rest of the poem. The rest of the poem, for me, is sad and a little haunting. However, that one line sticks out and is a different style than the rest of the poem. Otherwise, great poem. P.S.: I read some of your other work, and you have true talent. :)
