Tainted Love

[Macabre]

Broken, battered, beaten within
Dirty little plaything, cardinal sin
Impure, insecure and so confused
Half-hearted smile belies the bruise
Being used, misuse, untruth, abuse
Blissfully happy in your own ill repute
Blood on my hands, blood on the wall
The urge to call, doing nothing at all
You slip, can't grip, slowly fade away
My gluttony, your greed paves the way
Almost broken, hold on, don't diminish
I'm not finished, give me another minute
Is it right? This plan, this plight for you
I'm not in dislike, knowing you like it too.......

Aiming for lyrics or poetry? I can rarely tell the difference. If it was broken up, bit more space added to emphasise rhythm and flow it could work well as a song- as is, it works well as poetry.

Wow, this makes me ponder too Delkaetre. Looks like poetry in some odd form that I know in the back of my mind. o.0

This is more or less something I jotted down as it came into my head. I would call it poetry, but I have it set to a mental rythm. Thanks.

Didactic Verse. Didactic rhythm is learned in childhood, that is why it sounds familiar. For example, everyone remembers:

(the "-" = tiny pause)

Thirty - days - has September


April - June - and November

etc.,

Oh, and yes, it is good, like it.
