Second Circle Romance

[jabble524]

Hello, my name is Jason, I'm 25 and I live in Virginia. I'm glad to be here since I'm a huge Tori fan. These are six of my poems, which form a small collection, called Second Circle Romance.

1) Heavenly Hypocrisy

To deny someone love is a cruel torture
But in a selfish quest for eternal paradise
Fragile souls have to keep their morals straight
To avoid the wrath of a loving god

So with heavenly hypocrisy
They carve hearts out of chests
And leave them to decay
On the beaches of mortal sin

Beaches where the sand is stained red
And crimson colored waves gently kiss the shore
Where vultures pick at the remains of shattered romance
And the sour fragrance of broken dreams pollutes the air

Far away-
From shattered romance and broken dreams
Fragile souls bathe in heaven’s radiance
Where they drink fine wine, and dance the night away

Far away-
From the pain and suffering caused by discrimination
Fragile souls listen to a holy man
As he makes a toast, to equality

2) Venomous Counterfeit Angels

Daily homicide led to my broken heart suicide
Tortured nights, but no one could see how I felt inside
With my intestines wrapped around your heart, I just couldn't digest your loss
So like a broken dream-
I began to fade away

Cause you told me goodnight, then stabbed me in the back
You told me goodnight, then stabbed me in the back

I've loved counterfeit angels
And had my intestines replaced with rattlesnakes
Painful slithering memories keep me trapped, in your poison embrace

Cause you told me goodnight, then stabbed me in the back
You told me goodnight, then stabbed me in the back

When you cast me out of your heart
You created all the venomous demons I can't exorcise

3) Jade Green Eyes

A carnal pilgrimage
To the kingdom of pleasure
Where morals disappear
Beneath vanity and lust

Jade green eyes
And serpent like thighs
Pulling me in-
Deeper and deeper
Pulling me down-
Into the flames

Angels cry in sorrow-
As our souls descend to the second circle
Among demons and lost souls
I taste your cherry red lips
And we make love

Angels shed tears-
For those lost to sins of the flesh
Angels shed tears-
For those condemned, for crawling from bed to bed
For slithering from lover to lover

Angels wept-
But in the fiery passion of your kiss
We've burned those Sunday Words
And spread the ashes along the path
Of immoral romance

4) Shedding Skin

Her jade green eyes are focused
Like a coiled rattlesnake
Ready to strike its prey

Her cherry red lips are hungry
Like an ancient vampire
Who's slept for centuries
And awakes to hunt once more

Her forked purple tongue
Is strangely sweet and seductive
Flickering in and out, with malevolence
But I don't care

Although each venomous kiss
Brings me closer to the reaper
And each sinful embrace
Brings my soul closer to hell
I don't care

Because being with her
Is like shedding skin
Reincarnated by lust
And born again

Outside of heaven's gates
Our souls are carelessly discarded
Like broken wedding vows

Our hearts tossed aside to decay
Like morals when they're inconvenient

5) No Shame (In a Devil's Kiss)

I'd rather sleep with devils
In seductive red lingerie
Then live by their standards
Conform and obey

I'd rather taste luscious apples
From the tree of desire
Then live my life fearful
Of brimstone and fire

Cause darling your legs open
And heaven's gates close

I'd rather feel carnal pleasures
And be labeled defiant
Then let my soul wither
Forever longing, but silent

Cause darling your legs open
And heaven's gates close

As I stand before heaven's judgment
You can carve my heart out
But paradise is not lost to me

Because what's wrong with passion and ecstasy -
Between consenting adults?

6) Kisses Indicate

I can leave the place where time stops
Just outside of the second circle
I can leave the place where time stops
Heavenly paradise vanishes

Censored screams whispered
They're spectacular with the vernacular of confusion
Kisses indicate the illusion
There's correlations between your lacerations

Watch the sunrise
And fall asleep in loving arms
Cherry kisses at sunset
And wake me from my dreams

Censored screams whispered
They're spectacular with the vernacular of confusion
Kisses indicate the illusion
There's correlations between your lacerations

And they all point towards a beautiful bride
In a gorgeous wedding dress
Whose hands are stained crimson
Because she holds the beating heart
Of a fallen angel

1) Kiss the Rattlesnake

The perilous path to paradise
Ominous omens in disguise
I left my soul at sunrise
On the beaches to be sacrificed

Orchestrated oblivion
Choreographed chaos

A ravenous rendezvous
Of insatiable lust
Kiss the rattlesnake
And poison your trust

Orchestrated oblivion
Choreographed chaos

The strongest aphrodisiac is curiosity
When the mystery is solved
The sweetest ambrosia loses its flavor
And passion slowly withers

2) Midnight Lovers

Two midnight lovers by the lake
The moonlight dances across the crystal water
I savor the taste from your luscious lips
And softly caress your beautiful hips
Warm velvet skin moves across me

Forever seems so far away
While lying in your lover’s arms

My heart is an elegant cathedral
Exquisite designs of romance
Decorate the walls and the ceiling
Down the hallway, I hear angelic voices
Singing of priceless love

Your Judas Kiss was soft and tender
Betrayed by a seductive Aquarius
With lips blood red and nefarious
Pain and punishment are vicarious

My heart is a brothel
A revolving door of lost souls
Foreign lips and a stranger’s hips
Cold scaly skin moves across me

Whether in celestial spheres
Or circles of the inferno
The concept of forever
Has become crystal clear
Outside of your arms

3) Atrophy to Ashes

At first we could barely keep our hands off each other
But time is a slow venom
That causes romance to atrophy
Now we can barely stand to touch each other

I live a secret life
Like a fire chief
Who moonlights as an arsonist
Fiery desires replace complacent kisses

You burn in my selfish flames
But refuse to admit we’ve grown apart
Like Siamese twins
Who deny they’ve been separated

As I walk by the charred remains
Of a once vibrant romance
I see you desperately trying
To capture all the scattered ashes
As they blow in the wind

In a moment of clarity
I realize why love and reason
Are enemies

4) Occult of Personality

I take the path of excess
To the palace of wisdom
Redemption is worthless
Beauty and fulfillment of the senses are priceless

I explore every vice
And indulge in deadly sins
To awaken my senses
And escape the soul’s prison

Subconscious desires rise to the surface
Instinct replaces what I’ve been taught
Morality is relative
Ambition is blind

Chaos is strangely intriguing
Like the chance to sleep with an ex lover
One more time

I left you long ago
Because your kisses lost their flavor

Now I hear the serpent laughing
As I frantically stab my hideous portrait
My past sins punish me with age

Once I’m wretched and withered
The serpent smiles
And then slithers away
