Will Our Love Last?
Our love was a Beautiful Disaster
Our love was Hopeless
Our love was furious
Our love was An Untouchable force
We blazed brightly and passionately
We were Ruthless People falling for one another
We weren't supposed to fall in love, but we did
You said you would “Hold Me Like a Breath”
You said I was the only one
You said I was “All Your Perfects”
You said I was all you needed
But you held me more than a breath,
But more like your Cruel Obsession
But I was not designed for you
But I was stuck in The Sweetest Oblivion that you tapped me in
You gave me a Forbidden Crown
You made me a Paper Princess
You made me Yours
I was The Maddest Obsession of yours
I was the Good Gone Bad for you
I was Wasted Talent
I was a waste of potential, affection, and memories due to you
It was all in favor of you
It was intended to be us all along
“It Ends With Us” were my vows
You said “Maybe Someday”
You said I was A Girl In Black and White
You claimed I was too broken for you
You called me Pretty Reckless
You said I was a Damaged Heart
I thought our love was Beautiful
I said it was because it was ours
I said it was unique
I said it was yours too
I gave you my heart
I gave you my soul as well
It was anything but
It was Inked In Lies
It was a Twisted Love
It was an Ugly Love
Our love was toxic
Our love was not meant for us
Our love was endlessly bad
But it was my first, it is my one and only
Will our love last?

You are very talented, and I can feel your emotion through this beautiful and deep piece of art. I love it I will be making a second or the following part to this poem if you don't mind?

This is a book spine poem. The bolded letters are book titles. I've read 19 of the 25 and wanted to incorporate the themes of the books into a poem. I enjoy poetry, and I believe this is the ideal option for my first submission to Teen Ink! I hope you enjoy it!
