He Laughs At Me Briony Carvalho
He laughs at me
He controls me
I open my eyes and see glimmering choices
A distant destiny forming in my mind
A thousand paths converging on a misty future
He flicks the light off and I�m lost
Deciding my fate with fumbling hands
Groping for the nearest path the softest touch
Dragging my tortured soul blindly
He laughs again
Showering me with light
I blink, focus and discover my choice
Blind fumblings of lust
Realising the facts
He never helps since I hurt him
Broke him into a million pieces
Hid him away for years
The heart is a fickle child

"Very appealing choice of words, paticuarily the mood shift in the last stanza " -- kw.
"Thank you - think it needs some work but glad you like it - your turn now!" -- Briony.
"for some reason i can't seem to get a review to come up, i tried it from a different computer, maybe this will work. wonder if i've been banned or have been given a time out. i guess i could go sit in a corner for a bit, maybe that'd work. in any event, should this go through, i'll join k in saying this was cool. doesn't hurt a bit seeing the pic either. (hummmm, maybe it's my sexist remarks that get me in trouble)" -- curious.
"Hey Curious, thanks for the review...glad you liked it...not my normal thing but needed to post to get back in the flow after a break. Glad you liked the pic too ;)" -- Briony.
