Destiny or Weakness...?

You made me do it -
I had no say,
words would not be uttered,
each letter choked by your kiss.

I had to do it -
you gave no choice,
no escape route from insanity,
each breath channeled through your lips.

The dance was choreographed
long long before we met -
the steps mapped out
in one of fate's honey-traps.

A lyric that reminds me how stories, expressions can dance across a wizened face. Liked it.

I guess these comments are irrelevant, as you changed the poem totally (it's not longer 'old blue eyes')!

Good title and very apt to the piece.
So true of life.
Well done.

Woz - yeah, sorry...decided I wasn't at all happy with the original poem so overwrote it with this. Al, thanks for your comments - this was a poem which wrote itself - must have been bubbling up for quite some time - about a past 'romance' gone wrong - it certainly felt like kismet at the time, but perhaps not...?!

Hello

Sorry so long to reply, slowly gowing through writewords.

I read this poem before reading others comments and your own added comment about this being about *a past romance, gone wrong*.

You made me do it -
I had no say,
words would not be uttered,
each letter choked by your kiss.


Reading this and the whole piece to me sounds like the speaker is saying they didn't want this romance to happen, the speaker had no say in this romance - it sounds like a very one sided romance to me.

At first when reading I thought it was about *not being able to say NO* perhaps even of *abuse*, but that is how I interpreted it. Forgive me if I'm wrong.

I think it is a very well written piece, and quite thanks for posting (and rewriting)!!

Lottie :-)
