Another cavity a bold, blackened state upon my lids this shadow cast, enough to wake me. I can't have you mistaken by my eyes for an angel when your eyes scream murder, as you decay in every corner of my consciousness splitting my enamel~ my pseudo strength. Why do I look at you in this vulnerable state of woken just, when you're already in caving me at the roots ~the nerves my nerves are bleeding apologies to the brain as you unravel every last infected insult a net upon glittering sea hoping for my tear-fishes to feed you. I am so much more than the violence in your eyes the spit that carries a storm to my face the stench of intoxicated breath in my lashes A thousand curses and I listen, a still and silent haemorrhage of senses. You seem to be living while your ghost is watching me sleep I, the subject of a face that looms like death hovering... Why do I answer when you speak my name when I remember to forget my mourning to know that you are awash beached in a limbo of poses? My nerves are sinking into your sand, a shell of worn out patience Why do I speak your name when you are punching names into my head sowing malice into memories that won't forgive you? Damned ladies of Orpheus Your arias cause a stir in my sad Sad and lonely heart |

Darling Gem Drop, methinks you deserve far better than you are getting! ~ An understatement to be sure! Mind you, you write of such angst among the best of them! I've been missing you. You have so much talent to go along with that very pretty face and sweet soul of yours. Loveya! Lindy Lou |

whew... "caving me at the roots ~the nerves my nerves are bleeding apologies to the brain as you unravel every last infected insult..." and this: "My nerves are sinking into your sand, a shell of worn out patience Why do I speak your name when you are punching names into my head sowing malice into memories that won't forgive you?" swooning and wincing, so real is the pain damn. |
