Everything is insisting upon being pink.
Spring fever...
My eyes are twiching behind their lids.
Truth is eating through my lies like acid.
My bruises were so easy to conceal in the winter months.
Under my little grey cloud.
But now, now I closed my eyes as I looked your way.
And my heart fell clumsily out of place.
Everything is overly bright.
Your gentle fingers brushed my ribs, as you put my words back in check
my heart back to sleep.
This is the same ritual we have grown to know too well.
Time and time again.
And the numbers on the clock are so tired of the montony.
A wearing red glow, and we all know.
Its a biting honesty.

I really really really liked this! i've added it to my library because i really thought it was awesome and so descriptive.

I liked the last three lines the best.

this one was interesting to me, i dont know if i am supposed to feel sad because it seems there is a lot of hurt in here or happy because you are comming out about the pain you have suffered and sharing it with the world, anyways nice write
