You appeared to be an angel,
A rose amongst the weeds,
But even though you are beautiful,
We both know were the Devil laid his seeds.

It seemed that when you smiled,
The Sun and Moon would shine,
But Shade had broken your heart,
And you were soon to break mine.

Now when you smile,
A shadow spreads across your face,
It turns out you were fallen,
A tempter from another place.

Your kiss cut me deep,
Your words deeper still,
And like a vampire you left,
Once you had had your fill.

You had embraced me with you charms,
And with the things you do,
And as you entwined me in your arms,
We both said “I love you”.

But now I know you were lying,
You told me I’d been used,
I can’t even tell you,
The after thoughts I mused.


If there’s one thing I learnt from you,
It’s that every rose has thorns,
Some however have more than others,
This is what my tale warns.

Another sad poem here for you all.
Again it's writen from the view point of a hurt lover and carries bitterness.

I myself am still contemplating the exact identity of Shade here, and who or what it is.
He could be the heartbreakers past or personal demons. Their darker side, an ex lover or even lust.

Comments people, you know I love them.

It seems like, the more I read your poems, the more I relate to you. I remember feeling this way almost exactly...

The title really interested me as well. I have my own Shade (he's the sorta spooky character in my sketches) and he represents the pain of my Past and all that jazz.

So yeah, all in all very intriguing *thoughtful*

PS. :+fav: 'cause it makes me think of me and my Shade

But that was the problem with my dreams. They were always too realistic.

I’ll stick to my faux crème doughnut instead of my chocolate fondant

This is lovely, a balanced composition of dark and light; beauty and ugly.
I especially like "Now when you smile, A shadow spreads across your face". It conjures up some interesting images.
