A/N: This poem has actually quite the funny story about it...
It was about a girl I liked... She asked me out, about an hour after I wrote it...
then, two days later... she dumps me... 10/21/2007...
yeah...
Today? 1/18/2008...
It took me that long to get over her...
Saccharine- a false sweetness
You say you love me
but do naught about it.
I say the same,
But I am laughed off.
My heart is not a joke;
My love is real.
How long have I dreamed of you?
Whilst receiving nothing.
Ho much have I longed for you?
While not saying a word.
I bleed, cry, and scream:
Why can't you see I am human too?
Oh, sweet saccharine,
A sweetness that stings.
The burning touch of love.
As I get closer, it only hurts more;
I am the moth, and you my flame.
Burn me alive oh, blue flames of sugar,
Burn me alive, my sweet saccharine.
Sweet saccharine, you sugarey little lie;
Sweet saccharine, you make me want to die.
I am empty without you, and even more with
You fill me with emptiness,
A sugar-coated lie.
Once my truth comes out,
I will sting the most.
I need not protection,
I need not love,
Only your honesty,
Only the truth.
Hate me, loathe me,
Bathe me with your flame.
Burn me alive in your sweet blue fire;
Death by your hand would be my greatest desire.
Sweet saccharine, you sugarey little lie;
Sweet saccharine, you make me want to die.
I am empty without you, and even more with
You fill me with emptiness,
A sugar-coated lie.
Sweet saccharine.
