Do you think anything less of me for this?

Question

Scarlet Kiss Concealed

Our lips entwine, she and I

a breath shared in passion

I feel our lungs moving

as one

Our bodies draw closer

no space left between

Hand searching for a trigger

a dangerous game

I play

Ecstasy in a heated touch

the smell of sweat

in the hallow of her neck

A sense of abandon

A feeling of guilt

relieved

Goddess, tell me this

is real

But our game is given away

car door opens

Caught

by the father of an angel

and she is in the arms of a devil

Will I ever know her again?

-Yes, this is a tale of two girls… I hope you do not think any less of me for it… and it is based on events of the day!

Blessed Be in Love… just Love, Siren

Answer 1

I want to reassure you that there is nothing you can do, write, or say that can possibly make me feel any less of you than I already do. Or, as the old song goes;

"Now that you're gone I feel so bad, it's almost as if you were here."

And now that I am through with the obligatory corny jokes, let me say this. The poem made me uncomfortable. Not because it's about two girls (women?), but because it's about an amatory experience of someone whom I feel I know. It's the same feeling I have when my brother's partner talks about their s*x lives.

Answer 2

Everyone has the right to be themselves. You are a gifted person who does not build walls. It is something to be proud of. Well done.

Answer 3

I'm a little old-fashioned, I guess, in that I am not comfortable with homosexuality or other same-s*x relationships.  However I prefer not to judge people--even when I am uncomfortable with their actions or preferences.

So I do not think less of you for this.  I could even hope that I might in the future become enlightened enough to shed at least part of my discomfort.

Your poem and question were honest.  I feel I should submit an answer that is equally honest.

Answer 4

Of course I think no less of you... I still hold you in high esteem...so no worries there! ;)

Onwards to the poem itself...I think it was beautiful, emotional, and well-written. Therefore, it meets all of the criteria I've come to expect from you...^^

Great job...I didn't find learning about this side of you awkward in the least...<3

Answer 5

I cannot feel less of someone for telling the truth of how they are feeling in fact I would commend it. Not because I agree with what you say or do, but because you have not tried to deceive. This is a well written very emotional piece of poetry.

The only thing I found is L21 extra wording not needed

I see it like this:-

Caught

by the father of an angel

in the arms of a devil

Will I ever know her again?

Answer 6

It is not for me to judge you for who you are.

Answer 7

No, I do not think less of you, if anything I think more of you.  If true, you are brave to expose it to the closed minded people of YA, and if fictional it's still a brave thing to write about.  It sounds as if someone was about to have a very pleasant experience, and got interrupted just a bit too soon.

Answer 8

Of course I don't think any less of  you.  The poem is somewhat uncomfortable for me in that it is very personal and I find it difficult to respond to poems such as this, but it doesn't change how I feel about you or your talent.  You were brave to share this with us, but somehow I already knew and I was perfectly okay with it.  Peace and happiness to you and thank you for sharing.

Answer 9

No I don't. You need to write what is true, or your writing will lose its power. The best work comes from where you examine your life, and while there may be plenty of people who don't like what they see--it is still more important to write the truth.

So, content doesn't make me think any less of someone.

The poem also isn't written for shock value--so I appreciate that.

Answer 10

cant think less of anyone except myself

or thinking less for any moment.

that is more fair i think.

maybe this should be called Scarlet Kiss Revealed.

next time lock the door! lol

and this alix chic is freaking out. lol

Answer 11

Aw that was beautiful

I saved it to my notepad doc of awesome things

:3

Answer 12

This is a very courageous and emotionally powerful offering.  I do not, and would never, think any less of you for that.  It takes strength of character to write a peom so revealing of yourself.  Your writing can only be better for this strength and honesty.  Thank you.

Answer 13

I am not competent to judge poetry, let alone people.  This seems well written and tells a tight story.  And I feel it's more important that you love than whom you love.
