Another reason for misery
Inclined to dig, a
Nonchalant mystery
Incredible trait, this
Sadist in all of us
Alluring we find the sweet sensation
Deathly is the clutch
Dependent we become and
Instinctively touch, upon
Collection of memories
Tidbits of soul
Invitation to join them always allures
Vacation of pain beckons, another
Entertaining painful thought to ponder
Written for Acrostic Only
:) Nice attempt !!! Give it some time and am sure you ll polish it well :)
ReplyDeleteWow, great exploration of the theme! I didn't stick to it half so well as you did: I found it a difficult one as a prompt.
ReplyDeleteI love the rhythm in your last section especially.
You did quite well .. and I agree with Susan, this was a very difficult one. But I am glad you are sticking with it. Not only is it good practice, and if you hand with it you can create some very unique poetry. Also it's fun!

ReplyDeleteHi Neha,
ReplyDeleteLovely title. Pain is sure addictive. I like the way you have written it out. You should try to use words that have the sound that matches the mood of the poem, and it will be awesome.
Looking forward to more .
