Together
by Elizabeth Schalchlin (Age: 24)
copyright 08-19-2002


Age Rating: 13 to 127

 
Together we would save the world, fighting the demons of the night.

Together we would share the deepest secrets, together.

Together we were strong, together we were brave, together we were invinsible.

You were wise, I was new, you were strong, I was eager, you were guiding, I was following, you were almost a god in my shining eyes and I drank your lies with insatiable thirst.

You were hurt and I was the answer.

I was your only salvation and together we were the salvation of the world. I was your beautiful princess and you were my wounded hero. My sweet love was the perfect potion to heal your terrible ailments. I would save you from your past, from your sins, from your pain, from yourself.

Together we would right all wrongs and boldly march forward for the glory of God.

We did march forward, you are I, alone. Crusaders of the righteous cause and chosen warriors of God Almighty.

You needed love, I needed guidance, you needed attention, I needed reassurance, you needed praise, I needed hope, you needed an audience to justify your existence and feed your power lust.

You were alone and I was innocent.

Together we chased shadows, together we shouted empty words, together we gave glory to none but ourselves. Together we were insignificant fools with too much time and not enough sense.

All you wanted was to feel important. All I wanted was to feel important. All we wanted was to feel important.

Now I feel empty.
Now I feel foolish.
Now I feel alone.

How many lies passed through those lips I loved so dearly? How many false promises did you conjuror? How many pains did you feign? How many stories did you invent to gain my sympathy and affection?

Once I loved you and I love you still but the love I have is twisted with anger and disbelief. I trusted you and you did nothing but decieve me every step of the way. How can you stand there and tell me you love me still? How can you stand there and blaspheme the very essence of love with your demented words.

Those lips, those festering lips that I once tenderly kissed have devasted me and left me alienated from the world and all that is within it.

Together we would save the world, fighting the demons of the night. Now I know there was only one demon there, a master deceiver with smooth words and lying lips.

I spoke with that demon, I laughed with that demon, I played with that demon, I sang with that demon, I danced with that demon, I wrote with that demon, I gave my heart and trust to that demon and all he gave me was a broken heart and a poem.

This is that poem. You were that demon.

This is truly awesome. It is sad that sometimes while trying to follow God, we are led astray and deceived by someone we trusted. I guess the lesson is, don't hold people too high, instead keep your eyes on the author of your salvation, Jesus Christ.

Grammar slightly off, but it was so amazing I had to rate it as high as I could. I started crying reading this, because I feel the pain it projects and can relate. It's so amazing that you can write something so beautiful, and I look forward to reading more of your writing. Great job, Elizabeth. I hope you don't mind, but I'm printing it out for my scrap book. I love this poem. ;_; *Sniffles and wipes away tears, laughing* It's a beautiful poem. Great writing
