I can’t care about you
I will never say
I want to be here for you
My honesty can always be counted on
My time won’t be wasted on just words
Love has been shown different in my life
It’s not always like the movies, books, and songs
I know where I need to grow
I know who I am
You will be forever changed
When you’re in a relationship with me

Tortured Soul
The soul careened blindly through a void where it scraped against the walls of a narrow tunnel, amassing a cumulative friction that created all the heat the devil would ever need to torment it. There was no light at the end, not even a fire. From the bottom a cold wind blew, and the clash of extremities spawned vapors of terror in the deadened and numbed appendage that was this strange, delirious, drunken consciousness.

I like the topic you have chosen for your inverse, and the idea of someone’s words being twisted or having a second meaning. “My honesty can always be counted on” is a great line too.
This is great, the rhythm just flows effortlessly. Nicely done.
Interesting way of using poetry
Wow your talent is crazy! I love it!!🥰
