As you touch my heart
It shatters across the sky
Breaking into constellations
Oh my dear, Gemini
Setting free the demon
That I have locked away
But you have shown me yours
So together we will play
I’ll drag these claws
Across your skin
Leave a scar of my initials
For we are like twins
Draw blood and destruction
In our waking dreams
Forgetting at one point
We were on the same team
♥
For now just sleep, my sweet
Don’t worry about what tomorrow brings
So let’s pretend that
We’re giants among common men
Because we’ve never been taller
Than our demons within

*I was recommend this song on Friday and although I didn’t like it at first, I fell in love with the lyrics. So this poem is dedicated to the one who sent the song to me.
delicate stars
shattering
in
celestial formation
~
your first stanza
dreams like
an ancient civilization
creation myth
Funny you should say that Geo. I was going to take the poem in that direction in its’ entirety, but was too tired to redo it the remaining stanzas. I actually redid the first stanza last night as this was a post I started on Friday.
the ENTIRE poem
is a mythical
ethereal dream ♥
Awwww, thank you Geo! ♥
My mother and sister are both Gemini and I was born right on the cusp of it, I’ve grown to accept and love their dual nature. Thanks for the post!
My exboyfriend and my best friend are both Gemini – they definitely have duel natures! But I get along with those born with that astrological sign the best 🙂
Loved it!! My husband is a Gemini. Great post.
Gemini are awesome people. I believe I’ll end up marrying one, just because I am always drawn to them ^_^
A bit of darkness, a beautiful poem. I’m Gemini by the way …
We all have a bit of darkness, and I’ve always pegged you for a Leo 😉 LOL. j/k
Brilliance.
Thank you
as the first verse ended, I could feel my heart shatter. Again, I lack the vocabulary to describe how i really felt.
Thank you, and yea I know how you feel about being unable to express what you read sometimes. I’m not too good with it myself, but I appreciate your words.
I love it when you write poems about me 😉
LOL! Nice to single out all the Gemini in the house. No wonder I like certain blogger’s more than others 😉
Very well written… Again, I am not surprised 🙂
Aww, thank you! >_<
I’m guessing it’s about sharing similar things about yourselves – with another blogger? There is something quite special about finding someone who is similar to ourself. Something we often think doesn’t exist – and then, there it is – another person who’s gone through the same stuff, feels the same way. Invisible water to our soul – takes the heat out of the situation!
You do a lot of tributes to people you know – you are very thoughtful Britt!♥ 🙂 I’d like to do this eventually, but I’m worried I might get it terribly wrong and upset someone!
I have a confession to make! I crept back here yesterday, to borrow a few hearts! ♥ I copied some to Jottify on a post I liked and commented on there!!! Jottify is WordPress related, so I guessed they would work OK. So now that I have some, I can spread love hearts round to other writers – I think they liked it! 😆
The person who sent it to me is a Gemini, and I had always only seen one side of him until we broke up. His newly seen dark side broke out a side of me that I had kept under control, and we fight until we forget we were once lovers and friends. The lyrics I actually wanted to post was:
We are so fragile
And easily broken
But I’ll try my hardest
To put you back together
If you do the same for me
But I saw this photo and chose another line from the song 🙂
This one was worth the tribute but I have never had a second thought that I would offend anyone with what I had to say. I mean, who doesn’t like playing the muse once in awhile? 😉
You are too cute Suzy! I think they liked it too 😛
I’m feeling this. Can’t wait for June 19th
I’m glad this post called out the Gemini’s in this blogsphere 🙂
really love the third stanza and can definitely see the tie to the muse…:)
Thank you Don. I really try my hardest to have things tie in together 🙂
LOVE this poem. Beside it being my sigh, I can feel a connection with the lyrics. Thank you for sharing this 🙂
No wonder I like your writing 😉 Gemini FTW.
