Only Oblivion for the Naïve

by E. L. Wright - Capricorn

Slowly our lips met,
Their touch an electricity
That stopped my heart mid beat.
Fighting against the force 
That made my legs crumble,
I leaned into you
As our souls met in free fall.
Had I watched your face
I could have seen straight
Through your disguise.
As we kissed
My eyes were shut so tightly
I was blind.

Reason for writing:

    The feeling of regret and almost stupidity at not being able to see the flaws in a relationship, and carrying on regardless. Very bitter, this little poem. Comments and constructive criticism very welcome! P.S. I wasn't going to post on here any mroe because of all the arguing, but seeing as it has stopped I thought I would because I actually quite like this site. Everyone should get over all the angst! Save that for the real world.... :)
